i started skating april 8 2006 its now june 1st and i just got a 4 stair, I was so stoked i landed it a few times, but the landing is rough and sometimes the board would just stop when i land and i would fall rpetty hard lol. I tryed pop-shuviting it but i dont think i'm at that lvl yet..Me and 6 of my friends started skating at the same time and none of them can do it yet makes me happy lol

Good stuff man, I didn't Ollie a 4-set that quickly, but I was able to Ollie 3 decks within my first couple months, but mainly because of the competitiveness with my friend. We both ended up getting better then all the other skaters in our junior high because we were so committed and so competitive with each other. Make sure you use that to help you and your friends all become better skaters. I know this probably sounds a bit corny, but I wouldnt be half the skater I am if it wasnt for my friend pushing me all the time, and I probably would have lost interest skating alone all the time.
Also if your worried about it being sketchy just remember a couple things
1. Dont try to do the biggest fatttest fastest ollie down a stair case (atleast not a 4 set), all you need is a SOLID/clean ollie.
2. Just try and land with your feet on the hardware, that should prevent any awkward landings or snapping your board.

when you say you stop and fall when you land, it's because you're leening too far forward

On my first try of going down anything, I rocket ollie that shit, or just jump it without the board.

Yea because i tryed doing some like nice ollies down it with as much pop as i have right now, and i would concentrate on sliding my foot forward on the board while i was in the air, but i would slide to too far forward with all the momentum and my whole leg would just like do a nose dive.
The most decks ive ollied so far is two interlocked. I think i can do more now because one night i just did nothing but ollies, jumping as high as i can and i realized you need to bring your back foot up off the board and catch the board later instead of slamming down quick like i usually did.
Me and my friends play skate to drive each other a little bit, but we count fakei ollie and ollie as a trick just so we have enough tricks to get five letters with.
I usually win and i just do a pop-shuvit, fakie pop-shuvit, nollie shuvit, half cab, and like fakie ollie. I like half cabs cause i oculdnt do them and i'm like whatif i just pop the hell out of it then catch it and turn my body if that will work and i like stomped it when i first tryed it and now i land it all the time its my favorite trick i can do cause i float

im tryin to find a half decent 4 set. The best I can find is a 3 set and can ollie that plus three boards sideways at the bottom easily. All the 4 sets round me have no run up. Im gonna try a pop-shuvit down it next time.
