Not sure I agree with the whole goofy thing, I've not come across any instances of people being "picked on" because of it and it's actually really common in BMX. With guys like Aitken, Dugan or Ben Wallace to name a few riding this way it's nothing to be ashamed of. Also don't agree with re learning things just because it's not "the right way" - the right way is whatever way feels good to you. Also about the footjam whips, I learnt them both ways and found using your opposite foot makes catching the bike a lot easier/cleaner looking so once again - the right foot to use is whatever foot you feel more comfortable using. Even in BMX, I find switch footed footjam whips feel and look cooler.
At the end of the day, you can ride your bike whatever way you want and there's no reason doing things f*ck footed will look worse than doing them the correct way.
