Video Transcript

"This is Kyle Hovercamp from Skatechurch in Portland, Oregon. On behalf of Expert Village, this is the tutorial of how to learn how to ollie on your skateboard. In this clip, I'm going to show you how to add style to your ollies. You can add style one way by tweaking your ollie. That's instead of when you ollie, keep it level out. You ollie and then tweak it down or out. The way that you do that is pull your back foot up when you ollie and keep your front foot leveled. There is also shifties. There's 2 different ways you can shifty; front side shifty and back side shifty. Backside shifty is a lot harder. What a shifty is is instead of ollieing straight, you ollie and turn it and then turn it back and there's 2 different ways; front side and back side. The difference between front side and backside shifties are the front side shifty you turn the front of your body facing forward. Back side you turn your back."
