It's hard to argue against Baptista.

He may not have the biggest hammers but he makes it look effortless.

Surely you lads are aware that Rodney has been skating switch intentionally as his stance for a couple of years now,
refusing to revert back.

That's skating switch.

All the time.

I think AVE has a powerful switch game and deserves a mention.

I'd say P.Rod, but this thread is definitely reminding me how gnarly Eli Reed is.

Only one mention of Alex Carolino? He stands out as one of the best at skating switch ever!

Hands down. I don't think he even has a stance, he just goes whichever way he needs to get on whatever it is he's skating.

I don't think a frontside noseslide photo is good evidence of a skaters switch ability, lots of people find them easier switch than regular, myself included. I do agree about Tx though, I think he goes beyond just regular and switch too, he is equally comfortable nollie and fakie, frontside and backside, it's rad.
