Some ollie help please.

Question

How hard should I pop the tail and slide my foot?

Answer 1

you don't necessarily need to pop the tail hard. what you do is pop it slightly so that the nose will go up. once it pops, do a jump or hop with your back foot to get you and your board in the air. the board is still kin of vertical at this point. slide your front foot forward slightly...just enough to level out the board flat. when you and your board start to decent, start straightening out your legs.

Ollie is usually the hardest trick to learn. don't stress yourself.

Answer 2

Pop it as hard as you can, once you hear the tail hit, you slie your opposite foot op, and then (if you dont bail =]) you should have an ollie!

Answer mine plz!!! ill give you 10 pts!!**

Answer 3

you gotta pop as hard as you can and just slide your foot to the nose not all the way that it will go off the skateboard

1.get in a comfortable stance and stay balanced put ur back foot on the tail and your front foot an inch behind the bolts

2.then you jump up literaly jump up with BOTH feet

3.right after you start jumping really FAST and HARD pop the tail so tha pop could make it jump

4.once u hear or feel that you popped the board you slide your front foot up to the nose that makes the board get height and make the back wheels get up(wich was one of my problems)

5.once you reach the highest point of your ollie

level out the board with your back foot on the board

6.Once you land on the ground bend your knees to resort the impact of your ollie

7.just keep riding your board and dont fall off

8.P R A C T I C E

Problems:

1.sometimes you pop and your board goes flying forward,solution:thats because ur leaning back too much keep your balance

2.you pop and land but board doesnt go in the air,solution:your not sliding your front foot up.

3.you try to ollie and try to pop and slide your front foot to the nose but wont get to the air,solution:you think your popping but your not push with your back foot harder(wich was also my problem and got it after doing this)

hope i helped. :)

Answer 4

pop it til u hear the sound of the tail hitting the ground, then roll your foot up to the nose and lift ur back foot off the ground and that should be it. it takes some practice so get used to the rolling of the foot. and make sure ur back foot is being taken off the ground or ull just hold the board on the ground and obviously wont ollie

Answer 5

When you ollie, you position your feet so that you slide your foot right after you slide.

To find out how hard you should pop it, first try jumping high. Go o flat ground and jump high. Use that same force you used to jump as to pop the end of your board.

When you ollie, you first pop, jump, and slide. Just keep on practicing. Remeber to stay ON TOP of the board. Go for it and DONT get scared.

It will come naturally.
