Ollie

1. To ollie place your back foot on the edge of the tail, not letting it hang off though.

2. Then put your front foot in the middle of the board.

3. Then pop your back foot up and slide your front foot forward in a quick motion.

4. Keep your front foot going forward until it gets to the nose.

5. Let your front foot reach the end of the tail and stop it then shift your weight to the front of the board.

6. Level your weight out and you should be in the air.

7. Land it just anyway you can. Hint Also try this: Start with your back foot on the tail edge, then put your front foot a little bit in front of your back screws (2 cm). Then gradually move your front foot to the middle of the board.

Heres some more help:

1. If you Can, get the LIGHTEST BOARD POSSIBLE this is important.

2. Find a place were your board WON'T slide around like Mom's carpet, grass, or gravel, I prefer Grass.

3. Place your left foot in the middle of the Board with your heel hanging off the side make sure your toe is about an inch from the edge, then place your Right foot on the Tail any were that feels right. (if your not goofy foot, if you are then switch the feet around)

4. THE HARD PART snap the tail down Fairly hard with your Right foot until your get good, But Focus on your LEFT foot tilt your left foot so that the side part of your shoe scrapes on the grip tape then slide it up to your nose bolts (the screws at the front of the board). End Statement: If you still can't get it practice more or ask a friend to show you.

More help to ollie Higher First try to ollie in one spot, doing this on a rug is easier.

1. If your regular foot put your right foot all the way back on the tail. There should be no board left behind your foot.

2. Place your front foot in the middle of the board. This will make it easier to ollie.

3. Then you want to jump, pop the tail, slide your front foot up the board, and suck up your knees as high as you can. You wont really need to jump real high just suck your knees up to your chest as hard as you can. It will work eventully.
