^ I aksed this question a while back.
The normal way to track stand is with your leading foot forward (as in the foot you prefer to skid with, normally the dominant side of your body) with the wheel tilted to whichever side that is.
ie for me, I trackstand with my right foot forward, with my front wheel tilted to the right. therefore the wheel never comes close to the leading pedal.
I don't think I've ever met someone who does it your way, with the wheel crossing the leading foot... surely you'd find it easier... your'e essentially doing it switch at the moment, you goofy fool!
