on 7/8/2007 The key: watch videos of the ollie because timing is extremely important. I read hundreds of tips and none of them gave me any hint as to the proper timing of critical moments. Let me give you one here just as an example. Your back leg and foot will be fully extended the precise moment the tail of your board strikes the ground. When you come up from your crouch at the beginning of your jump the tail should not (I repeat) should not be moving downward. In fact, your legs will be almost 3/4ths fully extended before the tail even begins to move downward. Now go watch some videos of the ollie instead of wasting your time here.

on 5/13/2007 The First Thing How To Do An Ollie Is Put Your Left Foot At The Tail Of The Board Then Put Your Right Foot On The Middle Of The Board Then You Push Your Left Foot Where The Tail Is To The Ground And As Soon As It Hits The Ground You Slide Your Right Foot Up The Grip Tape Pulling Your Board In The Air Then Let It Land And If You Are Left Footed Then Do The Oppisite. Trust Me If It Worked For Me It Should Work For You Good Luck.
