suck up your legs

What kind of ramps? if its plastic get rid of it and go buy a wood one. Ollieing on plastic is alot harder than on wood

[SkaterNewb]

ollieing on those plastic ramps feels like ur going in a loop and u fall all of a sudden.

Anyway it depends what kinda slants the ramps are at, Wether it is a launch or a kicker. if it is a launch i woul eriously suggest speed and sucking up ur legs I can get about 4 foot of air just by doing that off a launch and if it's a kicker. start trying to ollie off of it

Pop high and push out.

yeah, you just gottaget used to it. start off riding of it then popping small olies of it then work your way up to doing big oillies of it and sucking your legs up

its a concrete funbox at woolgoolga skatepark woolgoolgas in nsw australia.

Try this, as you approach the kicker, squat down pretty low and the spring (ollie) off the top of it. The board will want to go straight up, so lean into it a bit to level it out. Start small and work your way up, and you can get some nice air.

yeah, once you get used to it you can ollie over some pretty damn high stuff off of a kicker or fly box

I've been trying this recently. It's just practise, most things in skating. Skate nice and smooth and start small and build up to higher ollies. After a while you can get some real hight.
