What is an Ollie?

An ollie is a fundamental skateboarding trick that allows you to jump your skateboard off the ground. It's the foundation for many other tricks and is essential for any skateboarder to learn. The ollie was invented by Alan "Ollie" Gelfand in the late 1970s and has since become a staple in skateboarding culture.

Tip #1: Foot Placement

Foot placement is crucial when it comes to performing an ollie. Your back foot should be positioned on the tail of the skateboard while your front foot is positioned just behind the front truck bolts. Your front foot should be angled slightly towards the nose of the board.

When you're ready to ollie, you'll want to crouch down slightly and focus your weight on the back foot. This will give you the leverage you need to pop the board off the ground.

It's important to note that foot placement can vary depending on the skater's preference and the type of skateboard they're using. Experiment with different foot placements to find what works best for you.

Tip #2: Pop the Tail

Once you've got your foot placement down, it's time to pop the tail of the skateboard. To do this, you'll want to quickly snap your back foot down and towards the ground. This will cause the tail of the board to pop up off the ground.

It's important to remember that the harder you pop the tail, the higher your board will go. However, be careful not to pop too hard or you'll risk losing control of your board.

Tip #3: Slide Your Foot

After you've popped the tail of the skateboard, you'll want to slide your front foot up towards the nose of the board. This will level out the board and bring it up into the air.

It's important to slide your foot quickly and smoothly to ensure a clean ollie. If you slide your foot too slowly or unevenly, your board will likely come off balance.

Tip #4: Level Out

Once your board is in the air, you'll want to level it out to ensure a smooth landing. To do this, you'll need to bring your back foot up to the level of your front foot.

It's important to keep your eyes focused on the board at all times to ensure you're maintaining your balance. This will also help you anticipate when to level out your board.

Tip #5: Practice Makes Perfect

As with any skateboarding trick, practice is key. The more you practice your ollies, the better you'll become at landing them. Start by practicing stationary ollies and gradually work your way up to moving ollies.

It's important to be patient with yourself and not get discouraged if you don't land your ollies right away. Keep practicing and you'll eventually get the hang of it.94WAKE1
