I can get up and riding heel side and toe side easy in my prefered stance (goofy)

But i just cant start the other way. It just feels unco.

You seem to look pretty comfortable cruising natural on your skatey.
How about practice riding the skateboard switch some more..

Make sure the board is pointing down wind as you are getting up. And stand up a bit more. Good luck.

every one has a good side and bad side.

you need to focus on your bad side, going back to basics, and work it through.

No short cuts here.

Just curious ,why finless? Unless you`r riding rails etc, fins are much better for keeping tha edge, going upwind etc.
