How to ollie...

[DivineRevival]

/facepalm at self.

Anyways, I just got a skateboard yesterday, and, I want to learn how to ollie. All these youtube videos are not helping me.

Any tips that'll help me?

practice, and make sure you slamming down on the tail hard enough, and are actually jumping up in the air too.

It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

Ignore the rock thing I didn't even notice that it wasn't on a real skateboard rofl. But the footing and steps are essentially the same though.

Slam down on the tail.
Jump with pressure from your back foot.
Lean forward.
Land.

Slam on tail.
Slide foot up.
Land.

It takes awhile. Took me awhile. :P

I don't really know how to explain it xD My english is so bad that it's hard to find the right words for it o.O Don't know if I should call it slam the tail down and slide your food up while you jump. I could also say kick your tail down and slide your other food up while you jump "



Now I really think about it, I really have to improve my english xD

stand on the board with one foot on the tail and your other on the front bolts.
Tap the tail and slide up foot that was on the bolts forward to push the board back to a horizontal position so u can land.

Move ur feet to where they are most comfortable. when i do flip tricks i usaully put my front foot somewhere in the middle of the board instead of the bolts.

Also maybe u should try Aggressive Rollerblading. Check out My video in my sig.
Who know i thought it was lame before i quit skateboarding to try it out. idk just a thought
