harder smack with your back foot and slide your front foot up simultaneously. suck up your knees quick so the board has room to catch more air.

ya. while in the air squat to your maximun squatting potential, I mean really tuck in, its good that your tall, most of the tall gangly skaters I know can bust massive ollies (im not small im 6'1 but w/e)....so once you learn to really tuck in and smack the tail harder is when you'll really get goin on your ollies, over multiple decks, garbage cans, Old women etc...

No boneless. You must learn to ollie high, Boneless to me just seems like a lower form of an ollie? mabey not thats just the way I look at them
