I'm currently learning to kick mongo. It's like writing left handed while upside down.

There are a few techniques and some good videos, although as always it all comes down to practice until your body obeys.

I do way better switch than mongo.
I try to condition myself not to shift weight to the back of the board (for stability reasons) , and mixing in doing it intentionally was never really a thing.
