help plz

[shortys_only]

ok ill admit, im having trouble with ollieing. When im on the cement, i take less time to slide my foot up, and i drop it quick, and i dont go as high, but when on the gr*** i jump like 2 decks. n e advice?

[KickTheFlip]

It can be frustrating not ollieing. Hell. I cant ollie that good, but Im wont give up. I try practice as much as possible. Just practice man. It'll come.

Stay out of the gr***. Learn everything from now on moving, it will help your overall balance. Plus you can skip that weird transition from when you first try and do a trick on the street.

yeah, listen to tool, i l;anred how to ollie standing still on concrete, and i ghad to pretty much leanr it again whiile moving.

[Heal flip]

you have to pop your tail REAL hard and jump REAL high and suck up your legs like hell. i do that and i can jump like 15 inches

[T O O L]

If hes a beginner is he doesnt need to pop real hard and shit. Just focus on the motion and consistency of your ollie and then you can worry about height.

ya stay off of the grass cause from my experience it only wrecks. just keep at it and it will come

[KrAyhZeeKHrAkUh]

just keep at it and stay off that ****** grass for sure...if ur learning try not to go so much for a huge ollie but just an ollie..after u get it down try more on gaining height..such as moving front foot further back slamming tail down and bringing ur knees as high as possible..oh and move while ur doing it

[big_hair_pimpin]

^^^^ exactly what this playa said. just gotta try it standing still cause grass ll **** you right up the ying yang

[T O O L]

Niggas I said all that shit way already. Did you really have to repeat me?

[big_hair_pimpin]

[NIGhtMAre]

yea stay of the grass unless your scared to fall. like try acid drops off stairs onto grass first before doing it on cement

[oldscoolelement]

damn, he has 300 [posts and its the begining of oct.? ****.

Grass will mess you all up man, try it on cement, and make sure you concintrate on bring that back leg(the one on the tail) up high, you'll get higher that way.

to ollie learn what the h*ll your doing. first before you step on the board learn what gets the board off the ground, put your hands where your feet should be. If you can get an ollie replica from your hands, do the same with your feet,but on your friend, the concrete. Pop the deck, slide your front foot up, like you did with your hands. Pull up back foot. The best way is to be moving. If you mess up, kiss the concrete and try again. It is time that sts ou free, man

[shortys_only]
