Well try and make the pop as fast as possible, but also as soft as possible, so don't just slam it, also before you pop, crouch a little, then when you start to jump back from your crouch you should pop.

I find having your heel hanging off the edge a bit helps, i don't know why.
So you have about 1/4 of your heel hanging off the tail of your board.

i put my back foot all the way at the end of the tail....with the balls of my feet on it. i kick down hard but at the same time jump........that should help with the pop

Just use the search engine on your toolbar. There are countless threads just like this where I know you can get more than enough information on how to ollie or in your case
not being able to pop the tail completely in your land.
