After watching the semi's and final of the Quicksilver event last night it got me thinking now that aerials are becoming the norm, I wonder what the next big step in surfing is going to be? Will surfers start doing what vert skateboarders did in the 90's and develop switch stance? From memory the reason why vert skaters did was because aerials became the norm and everybody started doing them, so to spice it up the best of the best started mastering switch and it became a prized ability in competition... I can see it happening in surfing tbh, when I don't know but once all the aerials you could possibly do on a surfboard in competition have been done, you have to think that riding switch stance will happen and become a prized ability.... (and btw people said riding switch on a skateboard wasn't natural and didn't take it seriously at first, just saying..)

What do you reckon, where is surfing headed?
