How to do Ollies & Grinds

Introduction

In order to skateboard, many must learn how to Ollie. To Ollie, you first must push your skateboard at a comfortable speed, but knowing that the faster you go, the better the pop. Then you must place your front foot near the middle of your board, about two inches under your bolts that way you can put your back foot on the tail. Squat, so you can spring yourself up, kicking your back foot down so you can pop as you jump up; your front foot should rub upward on your griptape. Make sure you tuck your knees to your chest, picking up your back foot as well to level the board at a good height. You must take close notice that you are jumping forward. As you come down comfortably, both feet on the board, it will look better if both your feet are over the bolts as well as it lessens the stress of impact. Finally bend your legs as you touch down to give it that smooth style and roll away stocked.
