Sea Lotus I'm natural foot and local jumping was port tack and so easy. Then spent time in maui, initially ok but just the time on water you gain the skills. Even to the point that forward looping but not the same peaky waves to loop on port tack at home.
Got fully into wave riding and Taranaki NZ would be your place as predominantly port tack wave riding but can get starboard tack depending on wind direction.
You have to think no difference and work on it. I would wakeboard and snowboard riding duck foot stance and got better so I really improved my right foot forward wave riding.
Even sup surfing I will ride switch on a mellow left but the top turn isn't quite the same.
Good luck
