Answer 1

Start doing squats and plyometric workouts.

Answer 2

1.Put your rear foot on the tail and your front foot in the middle of your board and the front bolts. Put the ball of your back foot in the middle of the board so when push the tail down, you feel pressure on the balls of your foot.

2.Now, bend your knees and crouch, as you get ready to jump. You must be able to balance your crouch! Don't bend out your back too much or stick your butt out too far out. Keep your shoulders square and level with your feet.

3.Push down the tail of your board with your back foot. Immediately after your board makes contact with the ground, drag your front foot toward the nose. The friction and dragging motion from your front foot and the board will cause it to rise off the ground.

4.Make sure to jump forward. Immediately after you pop, drag your front foot up and “jump forwards.” This will be tough at first, and you’ll have to practice to get the timing down.

5.When you get of the ground, you want to level out. You can do this by sucking up both of your legs.

6.Try to land with both feet at the same time, preferably with front and back foot as close to the bolts trucks as possible.

7.Keep practicing.

Tip: 1. Try to ollie stationary at first to get comfortable with the basics of the trick. Once you feel comfortable with the motions, you can start trying the trick moving, and then start jumping off of or on to things.

      2. The most difficult part is the trick is timing when to pop the tail, when to jump, and how to suck up your legs quickly. You’ll discover that it's actually all done at the same time! Learning how to ollie will become easier when you do everything faster.
