Answer 1

k well heres some basics...

Ollies-

its like three motions...pop, slide, and jump, all at the same time. first pop the bored, then slide the tip of your foot up along the board and jump while doing it. then even out the board before landing.

TIP-you have to touch the board when your sliding your foot up, that's how you get the board to stick to your feet.

TIP- to ollie higher, insted of putting your foot in the middle of the board, put it farther back, your will go higher, put it farther forward and you wont go as high but you will have more control

TIP- its impossible to pop higher then you can actually jump when your not on your board (so if you cant jump high, thats probably why your not popping high)

Kick flips-

ok, to kickflip, first set your feet up on the board, put your front foot a little bit behind the front bolts and like have it half way on the board, and put your other foot in the middle of the tail ready to pop, then your going to pop the board and flick your front foot up and off to the side, so your board should rotate all the way around, wait for the grip tape to come around, and then you catch it with your back foot at the bolts and land it.

Heel flips-

a heel-flip is opposite of a kick-flip, so instead of flicking your foot your going to flick it the other way with your heel (duh). so you start with putting your back foot in the middle of the tail and your other foot is going to be almost all the way on the board with just your toes hanging off, then you can get your heel ready to come forward and flick.

TIP- when your popping and flicking, you want to make sure your just flicking with your leg, and you don't throw your whole body with it or your going to land in front of your board and not be able to land

Frontside pop shove its-

start with your back foot on the left side of your tail, and your front foot on the board right behind the front bolts. wind up your shoulders so you can bring your back foot forward, start to pop, and your gona want to push the board forward and let it rotate frontside, and let the board spin all the way around and catch it on the bolts, spot your landing, and stomp it down

TIP- keep your body straight while your doing it

the reason why your board stops could be because your not getting enough speed before doing the trick. try doing the trick when you come off a ramp.

sorry if i suck at explaining how to do stuff, its easier just to show someone, but whatever...

hope that helps man, just practice, you'll get better.
