That's mongo, but regardless of how you push, the motion of the tricks won't change, as with both feet on the board you're still in a regular stance.

The way you push has no bearing on how you do or learn tricks. Learning no comply's may be slightly easier, as you are used to taking your front foot off, but they aren't that hard to learn anyway.
