Reputation: 94*shrug* dont want to spend a ton of money on a board when i may grow tired of failing - trust me, my attention span is rather short - but i do want to get good at it - and i need the exersize =P.

Reputation: 132My friend said it took him about 3-4 days to be able to do clean ollies continously. I told him it didn't look like it would take that long to learn. He bet me $20 that it would take me at least 2 days to do it right.
I did it in 30 minutes.

Reputation: 134Can you do it while moving? Cause if not it's kinda pointless. Just about anyone can get on a board and do an ollie it's not very complicated but doing it while your riding and doing it clean takes a bit more work than you are probably used to.
But hey you got $20 out of it.
