I'm not arguing that he is the greatest switch skater, I am just fascinated by the way his stance naturally changes between street and transition. There is no other skater that I know of that has that natural shift and I am interested in how.

I snowboarded first and when I started to skate it just felt better to roll with the other foot forward. I do not have a lot of switch tricks, but for what it’s worth I am great at pushing around switch.
It just seems like Leander has two different stances for street and transition. It is not that he has no stance. As was already pointed out above Thiago or AVE are way better at skating switch in the Street.
I am not from LA, nor am I even American so I wonder why so many people seem to hate The Venice Beach park and its locals. Apart from Leandre‘s Berrics association he seems like an OK guy whenever I see a clip about him. I don‘t really get the hate.

Somewhere in an alternate universe, Leandre got on Deathwish fully via Greco and soaks up game from him, Ellington, Foy, Kirby, Pedro Delfino, etc. Instead of being a Berra shill and fancy bowl troll, he has a more palatable career without the gimmicks.

The brain is involved, but I think it is more deeply ingrained. If you could test brain activity according to one's own proclivity to natural stance that would be useful, but I think for Leandre it is set at a genetic level.
This whole stanceless shit is garbage it’s more Steve Berra confusion. Someone needs to dose this man out just put a ton of liquid acid in his coffee or something he has to stop.
The stance less argument is really dumb especially when the example is someone who isn’t even a top 100 skater.
Can he even air out of a vert ramp? He’s clearly no pj Ladd tech guy or Chris Jolsin jumper. He can’t skate vert like Colin or mega like bob. Why is this dude praised so hard I can’t figure it out if it wasn’t for social media no one would know this guy

If he does the loop switch, I'll eat my words. Until then, everything he's done has been unimpressive regardless of which way he is standing.
Even the differently abled skaters are pushing the limits of their abilities more than this so called skate goat.
Maybe gimmick goat would be a more appropriate name for his skateboarding title.

there's something very soothing about the subtle forward twist in the knees and re-orientation of his shoulders after he hits the apex that makes this "trick" look perfect to me.
If his image is as malleable as we've seen, maybe Rodney can whisper something in heshed tones to make him focus on tranny for the rest of his career.

I would think Leandre has a natural stance and he just got insanely good at skating basic transition switch to the point it feels normal. It's not like skating transition is fundamentally all that different to skating street when it comes to a certain tricks, e.g. grinding a smith or doing a tailslide in a quarter feels almost identical to doing it on a ledge and vice versa, difference being is getting in/out.
If he ever were to hit a megaramp and made it look natural AF, then I would concede he may really be stanceless, but until then I'm not entirely convinced.

I would think Leandre has a natural stance and he just got insanely good at skating basic transition switch to the point it feels normal. It's not like skating transition is fundamentally all that different to skating street when it comes to a certain tricks, e.g. grinding a smith or doing a tailslide in a quarter feels almost identical to doing it on a ledge and vice versa, difference being is getting in/out.
If he ever were to hit a megaramp and made it look natural AF, then I would concede he may really be stanceless, but until then I'm not entirely convinced.[close]
This is the typical layman's assessment. No offense, but if you are not on the level to perceive his dual-naturality, I can not have a serious conversation with you. He is not stanceless. He has two natural stances. I am hereby labeling anyone that does not recognize Leandre has two natural stances as anti-science.
This guy is objectively better than me so props to him.
Edit: Sizzle_chest, good job on the Jerky Boys reference. Jerky Boys 4 was underrated. "I wanna dance, you bastard..."
Expand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteExpand QuoteWhat is it that I say that compels you to call for my censorship and expulsion? Does the thought of a superhuman skater amongst us bring out some deep-seated ill feelings towards your own mortality? Does he appear as some all-powerful Zeus before you? When you think about death do you lose your breath or do you keep your cool?
The name skategoat, as outrageous as it may be, is actually a bit of a misnomer. To be the G.O.A.T. you have to exist within the framework of "time". The gods are able to see through the illusion of time and Leandre may well have this capability. Is your mind so small that you have to fall in with the pack wherever they run? Open your eyes, just realize that he is the one.[close]
Please don't do Black Sabbath that dirty if you have to steal their lyrics to express your standpoint.
Leandre is good at skating switch and regular, that's it.
Superhuman is more a expression you can use to describe Bob Burnquist for example.[close]
I cited Geezer directly previously. I'll include a long list of footnotes if that is required. I believe they apply to this scenario.
Leandre has two natural stances.
Bob is a super talented vert PIONEER with one natural stance.[close]

Lol you some sort of sport's scientist or just a run of the mill poe?
Since you fancy science so much though, what exactly is it about skating transition that makes it fundamentally different to street that he must switch stances to do it comfortably?
On top of that, can it be ruled out entirely that he didn't just get comfortable skating transition switch to the point it became normal to him?
These are just some questions actual researchers would ask regarding this, with the latter question being indicative of whether it was an acquired or inherit skill.
What tricks does he have goofy and what tricks does he have regular?you should make a list

Slap: 15 minutes.
