How To Do Just About Everything
an article teaching you how to Ollie on a skateboard
The Foot Positioning
Put your front foot around 2.5 inches away from the bolts, put your back foot in the middle of the tail
Pop the Tail
Using your back foot, stomp down on the tail of the board, try practicing just popping the tail with no jump first
Jump With the Board
As you pop up the tail, jump with the skateboard as it begins to go off the ground. (lift your back foot up)
Level Out
When you're in the air, level out the board by lifting your back foot up. (the board will stick to your feet if you have skateboarding shoes)
Roll Away
Land, roll away, and feel good
