To be honest, I think most ollie trick tips severely lack in explaining how the 'galloping part' is what makes the trick work. Yes, sliding your front foot up is super important, however the entire motion is more like hopping over a fence with front leg first, shortly after followed by the back foot. I'm sure an exaggerated ninja kick makes it go super high, however most people don't really crouch down enough to get max ollie height in a more regular jump intensity.

I had one of the higher ollies of my friends growing up but it was all cannonball style. No internet, no tutorials, all we had were grainy VHS tapes. I wish I had access to content like this when I was 16. At 47, trying to learn better (tweak) technique with so much wear and tear is definitely not easy. I don’t know younger people understand what a resource this is.

Tip: When you pop the board with your back foot, try popping it a bit backwards on the ground, kinda like sliding it behind you. This made my ollies much more precise and stable, its easier to keep the board under control and catching the front bit too!

Probably the best tutorial I’ve seen on how to Ollie higher. I’m in my mid forties just learned to Ollie 2 years ago. You’ve got plenty of time left on this earth thanks for the tips youngster.

I’m 2 minutes in and can already tell this is gonna be the most useful video for a lot of beginners/people who want to improve

I know these things, but it honestly always helps to have a better skater, or anyone show their technique. Skateboarding is still being learned and relearned every day as a sport, so there is endless tips n quirks you can use that's makes skating work

[SkateState]

I appreciate this one! Thanks Dan! I’ll for sure be trying those hacks tomorrow. And come by Stoner one morning!

Damn dude. I started skating at 35 I am 36 now and I mostly skate transition but I have been trying desperatey to get my ollies higher for months now. I can get about a foot off the ground and thats it full speed. I am dreaming of finally breaking out of that zone thanks so much for the info on the backfoot. Never heard of that before and gonna def try and work on the back foot info. Your the man Dan!!

This probably the best ollie tutorial ive seen. Lol its like when you was a kid and you couldn’t beat a level but when you grow older. Your like oh it wasnt that difficult 😂

[djzonque]

I think Zach has one of the best ollies out there. He tweaks them really nice and high. He should be your test person. By the way..I've never seen you ollie that high before

I’m downloading this video and replaying it till I get my Ollie’s ledge or rail height. The slow mo was amazing thank you so much Dan I’m really hoping I can get my Ollie’s higher! 😎❤️

Thank you very much for this video! I've been ruminating about this technique for awhile.
I watched a lot of Ollie tutorials (tutorials in English/Japanese/Korean) but their explanations were always different.
And this was the FIRST video that mentioned one-footed jump which helped me improve my Ollie a lot! So thanks again Dan!

There are still some confusion regarding Ollie technique. Could anyone clarify which would be better?

1. Pop straight down vs Pop slightly backward
2. Jump straight up vs Jump forward

ps. The one thing that helped me the most was not the technique or knowledge.. it was fixing my posture. 8 yrs of programming job basically exacerbated my back muscles, tight hip, hamstring, calf muscle, round shoulders, forward neck etc.. It was nearly impossible for me to maintain balance as my weight distribution was heading forward when I crouch down. I tried Yoga and weight lifting as a rehab and I got much better at skating in general.

This is the best Ollie tutorial on the internet

I’m a late 90s/early 2000s skater and my daughter is getting me back into it. I always assumed it was almost an even balanced jump between front and back foot with a tail snap at the last second, drag etc. I’m also only 5’3” and figured that part of why I had a harder time not having them rocket a bit.

[ElisainNature]

When I skated really hard back in the 90s, I never actually lifted my backfoot very much. And that really limited my ollie. I kinda forgot bring it with me when doing the ollie. After starting skating again a couple of years ago I really try to focus on it. But it´s kind of difficult to remember it. When you learn it «wrong# the first time and have been doing it like that for years it´s difficult to change that. :-D Enjoying your videos a lot. Greetings from Norway
