Hey guys. I just got good at ollieing (or however you spell it) and now i can ollie a little over half a foot high. What trick should i learn next...something easy that i could do in my driveway becuase there aren't any skateparks around here and i dont have any ramps or rails. i can also manual (not well though) and pivot really well.
(i was thinking kickflip maybe? or is that too hard right now? or maybe a cool manual or something)
Thanks! :-2:

Try getting your ollies higher, so you can grind. Also if you have some banks near you that's always a godo place to skateboard. But sure go for those kickflips.

Always keep trying to improve your ollie, but in the meantime u can try to learn pop shuv its, 180s, and maybe boardslides on a 6inch high rail

I recommend you learn FS shove its first. Many people think BS is easier, but that's because that's what they started with. If you learn FS shove its first, you'll be able to do varial heelflips and stuff more easily which people like.

Throughout yer skate career (metaphoricly) you're ollies are going to improve and improve until they're as good as Reese Forbe's. That's the stopping point. Anywho, all you're other tricks will improve if you keep learning new ones, after you start getting shuvits, try bs shuvits, 180s, fs 180s. Everything! Learn kickflips AND heelflips! I learned heelflips before kickflips which was kind of a mistake but it helped me with every other flip trick. Except 360 flips because I suck.

Goofy stance= heelflip then kickflip.
Regular stance= kickflip then heelflip.

The stances don't matter, dipshit. Learning a kickflip first is what most people do, but if you feel heelflipping is easier at first then fine.
