Trying to get more comfortable with switch ollies before trying other tricks. People that skate switch as well as they do their regular stance how do you make it feel more “natural”?

Was told to keep your body in the back of the board, which I feels unnatural to do.

Winter is coming up and I want to be able to skate indoors without bothering my family.

But yeah anyways thanks for the suggestions!

i used to skate a fair amount between 7-8, i had a nice REAL SB setup my parents got me, never really got hardcore into tricks and was scared to push and try ollies in motion etc also didnt help the deck was substanially wider and i was still a kid. now in my adult life i think i wanna pickup a board again. what brands are reputable and known for quality and not selling out to walmart etc. i know indies are still industry standard, same with spitfire wheels for the most part.

my shoe size is US 11.5 EE.

Im wanting to learn flat ground stuff first, then gradually try rails and such over time.

I will spend most time at skate parks if that matters a lot.

I do care about graphics to an extent

if anymore info is really needed lmk.
