"EVAN BLANKENSHIP: Hi. My name is Evan Blankenship with Expert Village, and I'm going to be teaching you about how to switch Ollie off of a cub. So, first of all, look around, find a curb; they're pretty much everywhere. They're not very hard to find. So, once you've found a curb, you want to warm up, Ollie off it, right off it, switch, and then go ahead and try and switch Ollie off it. So, now, you've Ollied off it, go ahead and practice riding off the switch. So, now you're comfortable riding off at switch, you can go ahead and try to switch Ollie off it. And now, that's how you switch Ollie off the curb. Just remember, use those five steps, a good foot position, good pop, sliding your foot to level the board up, sucking up your legs to get more height, and you're landing on the bolts."
