How to Slide Your Feet for a Switch Ollie

Video Transcript

"EVAN BLANKENSHIP: Hi. My name is Evan Blankenship with Expert Village, and I'm going to be teaching you how to slide your front foot for a switch Ollie. Alright, so to slide the front foot for a switch Ollie is very similar to that of a regular Ollie except with the other foot. So, when you're doing this, you better get the pop solid. You can pop the board into the air. You just can't stick with it. You can't level it out. That's where the slide of your front foot comes in. So, you pop, pop the board into the air, and you slide your foot. That way the board comes up into the air and your foot kinda levels it out, gets it so you're ready to come back down and land. And once you've got that down, then you got to focus on landing on the bolts and landing center. So, just like for a regular Ollie, just slide that front foot, turn it, get the board level, and you're ready to land."
