How to ollie!

how to ollie

Well I havent been skateboarding recently but I remember when I first started, the first trick you tried was always the ollie. The Ollie is the first trick that most skateboarders learn.

If your starting skateboarding here is a tip on how to ollie:

push at a comfortable speed, place your front foot near the middle of the board and your other at the tail end of the board, squat down so you can spring yourself up, kick your back foot down and your front foot upwards on your griptape, Make sure you tuck your knees to your chest then come down comfortably. Its probaly the easiest trick to learn but its also one of the most important ones to learn so keep that in mind.
