536140
First off, if u are goofy, put your right foot forward close to the front screws and towards the middle not the edge, and left one behind you really close to the back edge. With both of your feet lean on your balls of ur feet, and with your left foot tip the skateboard were there is only one end of it one the floor, and at the exact same time you ROLL/SLIDE your right foot/toe upwards on the skateboard, you have to roll with enough force that the skateboard jumps into the air. If you are regular same thing just visaversa.

There is no easy way to learn to ollie. It takes weeks of dedicated practicing to even begin to get something that resembles an ollie.\n\nIn order to get the motions down for an ollie you can use Practice Trucks such as Soft Trucks or you can use your normal skateboard and place it on carpeting (outdoors), grass, or lock you back wheels in a crack of the sidewalk.\n\nHave you ever had a pencil sit on the edge of your desk and hit it so that it goes flying across the room? Well, an ollie harnesses that same energy.\n\nYou want to push down (HARD) with your back foot and the second that your tail hits the ground, jump up, slide your front foot forward (to level out the deck), and land on all four wheels.\n\nAs you get better with your ollies suck you knees up towards your chest when you ollie. This will help you get even higher.

Before you start an ollie you must first set your feet up with the front foot near the middle of the board and the back foot near the edge of the tail (check out some videos on youtube for refference). Lean forward, almost as if you're trying to look over the nose (front end) of the board. Now push down quickly with your back leg, slamming the tail into the ground, and slide the edge of your front foot up the griptape. This should cause the board to propell upward due to the acceleration of your foot and the friction of the griptape rubbing against your shoe. Level out your back foot and try to compact your body into as small fo a ball as possible (to get the most out of your ollie). Try to land on the bolts as this is both more stable and less stressing on the board.

bend your knees, jump a little, slide that front foot, jump off with the back, bend your knees in mid air, land on the truck and bend your knees once again.-here are some common problems people have when trying to ollie, and some ideas that might help you:\n\nChickenfoot\nThis is where you pop up into the air, but when you land, for some reason one of your feet always seems to land on the ground. The most common reason for this is that you don’t feel safe, and you are pulling one foot out to catch yourself. You might not even be aware of it. The best way to deal with this problem is to focus on keeping that foot on the board. Punch it if you have to. Imagine it nailed to the board. Be aware that you are catching yourself, and just stop doing it. If that doesn't work, then you can see which foot stays on the board, and next time focus on keeping that foot on and let the other foot come off. Then, try both.\n\nLow Ollies\nThis can happen for a lot of reasons, but the biggest one is that you are not crouching low enough before your ollie, and not pulling your feet high enough after you jump. When you crouch down, try and touch the ground. When you jump, try to hit yourself in the chest with your knees. Both knees. Don’t worry about falling. That'll happen sometimes – that’s just part of skateboarding.\n\nLosing Your Board in Midair\nSometimes skaters lose thier boards in mid air while ollying. If this happens to you, you may be kicking the board away while in the air, or taking your feet off of your board. Try and make sure to keep yourself and your feet above the skateboard.

Street trick tips: Beginner\n\n\n\n\nOllie: For a good solid ollie you want to place your back foot on the tail and your front foot right in the middle of the board. Now bend your knees and pop the tail to the ground hard and slide your front foot up to the nose of the board. This should start taking you off the ground so suck your knees up to your chest like your sitting down in mid air. Get ready for the landing by bending down to absorb the shock.\n\n\nManual: For a manual you want to place your front foot on the front bolts and your back foot on the tail of the board. Now shift your weight to your back foot while balancing in the middle of your board to stay in the manual position.\n   \n\nNose manual: Start out in regular manual position just with your front foot on the nose and your back foot on the back truck bolts. Now shift your weight to your front foot and lean a little bit backwards. Now balance out for a good nose manual.\n\n\n5-0 grind: Be clean with ollies and manuals. Now roll next to the object you plan on grinding with a good amount of speed and pop an ollie. Land on the back truck and shift your weight to your back foot and lean forward some. Keep balancing so you can get a pretty long grind. At the end of the grind pop an ollie off depending on the type of grinding object. Land and roll away.\n\n\nPop shuv-it: Okay get into the ollie position except put you back foot on the upper side of the tail and your front right off the lower side. Now pop down the tail and sweep your front foot forwards and your back foot backwards. The board should start doing a 180` turn so while it’s moving jump above the board to give it room to spin. After it’s done spinning catch it and roll away. \n\n\nNollie: For a nollie place your front foot on the nose and your back foot in the middle of the board. Now pop the nose down and slide your back foot up to the tail. Raise your knees while in the air and land.\n\nFrontside 180`: Get in the ollie position just have it so your front foot toes are hanging off the side of the board. Now pop and ollie and twist your hips so you’re starting to turn to the left if you’re regular footed, if you’re goofy footed to the right. Practice landing 90`s until you start landing full 180`s.\n\n\nBackside 180`: Get into the ollie position just that your front foot’s heel is hanging of the edge of the board. Now ollie and twist your hips in the other direction so your turning in the opposite direction of a frontside 180`.\n\n                                          Street trick tips: Beginner advanced\n\n\n\nPop shuv-it nose manual: Be clean with pop shuv-its, nose manuals and ollies. Now get into the pop shuv-it position and be ready for a nose manual. Shuv a shuv-it and once it’s starting to come around you want to have your feet in the nose manual position while in mid air. Note: You will only have a split second while in the air so get this down fast. Now land balanced in a nose manual and roll away.\n\n\n\nKickflip: Place your back foot on the mid side of the tail and your front foot off to the side with your heel hanging off the edge. Now pop an ollie and flick your front foot off the side of the nose making it flip. Raise your knees to your chest to stay over the board and land with your feet over the bolts. Be sure to flick off the board hard to get the rotation and raise your knees to your chest. The best place to practice kickflips is on carpet because you have more control over the board.

Kick down on the tail, slide your front foot up and push down on the nose. Then level the board out. If I remember right anyway...

Do it from the toe, twist hips slightly, and place heels down. You have to do both feet at the same time, some find it easier with a slight jump others find it easier to start out with one foot as though when skating forward.

Panda Ninja: say something smart dont be a smart a** maybe she is just starting out u moron.\n\nTo ollie u place ur front foot in the middle of the board, and ur back foot on the tip of the back of the board. Now try and pop the tail which means put ur weight on the tail but try and jump with ur other foot at the same time.then push ur front foot to the top to level ur board. Once u get it ride away with a smile.

i think ur in the wrong section, this is for cycling and u dont ollie  on bike. \n\nbut anyways, if u wanna ollie on a skateboard, u need to smack the back of the board down while pushing ur front foot down on the board and give a slight jumping motion. its gotta be done really fast but if done correctly, u will have the perfect ollie.

- The kickflip is considered the most difficult, basic trick. It combines the ollie with the skateboard doing a barrel roll, where it just rotates on an axis that goes across length ways. It rotates counter clockwise when looking from behind if you're goofy, and clockwise if you're regular. Once the kickflip is learned, a lot more difficult tricks that combine the kickflip with other rotations become possible to learn. The stance of this trick, is similar to an ollie, but the front foot is usually closer to the heel edge of the board and is at more of an angle. Most people  have their foot at a 45 degree angle, but it all depends on personal preference. \nHow To Kickflip\n\n\nHaving trouble learning to spin that pesky board? Well hopefully this guide can help\n\n\n\n\nHow to Kickflip\n\n1 - First you first need to know the basics. Make sure your able to ollie consistently and it helps if you can ollie about 2-3 decks at least. Also if you learned other basic moves such as pop shove-its and 180s it would help your balance and timing of this difficult trick\n\n2 - To start off, make sure you do this trick moving. Although there are a few people who prefer to do tricks while doing it still. I don’t prefer this method because then it makes you rely on staying still making you a little hesitant when you do start learning it moving. So its best if you just start off moving. Make sure its not too fast but not too slow either, make it smooth and flowing and be sure your comfortable\n\n3 - put your back foot like a regular ollie. Also DO NOT put your foot on the edge of the board. Some people say it helps the pop and flip. But that just screws up your balance and will mess up your flick. So just put your foot AROUND the edge of the board and make sure your feet are balance and comfy because that’s the main part. Now put your front foot about 2-3 inches behind the front bolts. Not on the middle because it’s a bit uncomfy and you need more strength in your flip which may screw you up when your just starting to learn it. Now put your front foot 45 degrees so it makes the flick easier and more accurate\n\n4 - Now comes the action, make sure you pop the board hard so your can get a better drag. So then not only makes your kickflip higher, but it also gives you more time to spin the board which is crucial. Everything should be going like a ollie. Now comes the hard part. You need to drag the front foot up as usual. BUT you don’t just stop at the bolts, your need to go off the corner of the board where the concave of the nose goes upward. Then this is where the 45 angled foot comes in handy, need to FLICK the board with your foot and not your whole leg. This is where people mess up. DO NOT USE YOUR WHOLE LEG!!!! Or this will mess up your kick flip and you will just overshoot it and thus, screwing up the whole thing. Just with a little power with your ankle, flick your foot out to spin it. I cannot stress this enough, trust me you don’t need a lot of strength for this, just a little flick can do it\n\n5 - Now it should be spinning. Pull your front foot back and make sure it doesn’t collide with the board. Your back foot is just hanging there waiting for the land. Just wait for the spin to finish and BAM! Slam your feet down to land. The landing should come with instinct and not timing. \n\n6 - Congratulations! You made your first kickflip (in your mind), now just make sure you pop and drag higher to make that kick flip even more sexy! Good luck

Hey banannas a kick flip is a basic okay. Its already a regular flip. Okay dude start by riding at a slow steady and comfortable speed. Put ur back foot on the end on the curve and ur front foot in the middle of the board. Push ur back foot down and drag ur front foot all the way up the board but drag it at n angle towards u. Hope I helped thanx!!!! (6)

well, did u did it the right way? ok here's a tip if you want to jump. this trick is called an "ollie." an "ollie" is by taping the end of the board off the ground or on a ramp. by doing this you well have one foot by the tail of the board and the other foot in the middle of the board. also, bend ur knee while doing this trick also. ok since u got the position, go do it. don't do it while ur moving because this made cause injuries. ok get balance on the board while doing this. tap the tail of the board and jump a little bit and that will make the "ollie." if u want to make a flip. i'll tell u this is complicated to do. what kind of flip do u want any way? because the "ollie" the the easiest trick. do u want me to teach u how because i'm been skating for 1 year and 5 months and i'm a pro. it's easily if u r confidante on doing it and hangin out with the pros and also lookin up on the internet for tricks help.
