why!!!!!!!!!!(not)

[Bird Dog]

i was out yesterday at koppert lake... working on riding.

i threw down a couple toe side shoves and the driver/instructor said try them heel side...
so, i got up, cut left (reg. foot) flattend out and threw the shove...

i had no idea that from the healside was much easier??!!!!!
what i had noticed was while i was doing them toe side i was getting a lot of pop and catching them mid air (which works) but, i took half the effort from a heel side. i started working on a 3 shove but was only getting the board to about 270 and watching it sink...

so, dont anwser "why..." but just thought id throw it out there for any one else. just in case??
