Same problem I have. I can pop up great natural. If you use the what foot do you kick a ball with, that should be your back foot then I'd be natural. I can't even pop-up goofy while surfing.
You put me on a surfskate and I'm so much better goofy. If you use what beginner skateboard videos tell you to do running and imagining your sliding on ice then I'd be goofy also.
I've been teaching myself to skate natural and it's been a long process and it still feels better to skate goofy. Pushing off is easier. Balancing is easy. Being weighted over my front foot is easier.
I am debating with myself if I should just skate goofy and spend the time teaching myself to surf goofy as well. I'm equally terrible at both so I don't know.
You can teach yourself to skate the opposite way. I've done it myself. If you figure out the right answer let me know cause I'm just as confused as you are.
