here's bluntslides, but don't do bluntstalls first, they're done different.

Should be able to do 90 degree ollies (duh). Approach parallel, ollie, turn 90 degrees late, not right away like 180 ollies. You should be over the object when you turn. land and balance on object. Here's the hard part: landing. Suck your legs into your chest, turn the board 90 degrees in the opposite direction of the direction you turned in to start with. Push slightly with your toes to flip it to a horizontal position. Bend legs on impact to absorb the force, and ride away! A tip for this slide: lean back slightly to prevent yourself from going into a tailslide.

This is one of my favorite tricks, so try it like this, and if you don't get any closer, then i either wrote this wrong, or i'm doing it wrong.

For bluntstalls, approach object straight on, like a T. Ollie, lean back(IMPORTANT!), and slam the board down on it's trucks. Then, grab the nose of the board, jump up and back, and place the board under your feet. Roll away, stoked that you pulled this cool trick!

or you could just ollie out of a blunt like you have to on ramp which is very hard and scary
