How to ollie effortlessly

The "casual ollie" is how I ollie over cracks. I use it when cruising because it's low effort ("effortless / lazy") and much more consistent than a normal ollie. If you're learning how to ollie, try a few of these, and it might help you get all your wheels off the ground.

I also go over how to ollie higher briefly in this video; raise your back foot after popping, and push your front foot forwards to level out / bone the board out in the air.

I’m new to skating and my high-effort ollie is your effortless ollie😭

[SQUIRTGANG]

I’ve been skating for over 20 years, one thing I’ve noticed over the years, is that nobody ever says that less is more. Looking effortless is not as hard as people may think, and this tutorial applies to a lot of other tricks too, especially heelflips and front shuvs

You’re the only person teaching the casual ollie. I learned from you thanks !!! It also improves my overall board control

This finally gave me the motivation to learn how to ollie again. Been skating for quite a few years, but pretty much only as a means to get around since I don't have a car, but cracks and elevation changes are super annoying since I have to stop at them, this seems like the perfect way to overcome obstacles and start getting the basics of a good ollie down

Just the tutorial I needed cause no one else explains how to do it on YouTube, thanks bro 😎

[greeksalad]

To do an even more effortless Ollie, start with your knees slightly bent as the should already be if you’re cruising along. Then pop the Ollie like in said video but bring your front foot up and in a more forward motion to prevent the fail from actually hitting the ground. They are really funny and you can hop over bumps and manhole covers with no sound and like ninja.
It should also be said for a regular Ollie if you want to tweak it, bend your knees up to your chest as much as possible. If you do this during a 180 FS or BS if you keep your knees bent you will do full air rotation. If you want to land half way around and power slide the remaining degrees, straighten your knee on the leg that you popped with after you’ve rotated 90 degrees. Keep everything else the same and your core spinning exactly the same way. This trick is with straightening the knee.
Nosebonks and other things are also fun to do with no effort to get over sidewalk bumps and things. Would be neat to see a video on those

[thomashr]

for sure the best (short) ollie tutorial. Thank you !

[SadMachn]

Been skating for a while but I always wondered how people did these lol thank you

[Grubber.]

This is so helpful, all the other tutorials are for people who already have got the hang of doing an Ollie. Thanks so very much for this tutorial. Came in clutch 🙏

[THICCTHICCTHICC]

Bro thank you
I've never seen a video where someone shows the motion off the board

[jman]

i think a tip not enough people give to people learning is to put less effort. often when people are learning an ollie for example, they put too much effort and they are making the trick harder than it really is.

[EjamesArcilla]

thanks this also worked for fingerboarding

[nilercanercan]

Thanks for sharing this every YouTube I watched they do Explain it good but u Explaining it better and u r doing it without a Skateboard and with a skateboard that’s what I needed it’s like hopping with one foot 🦶

[paulwalker]

I love doing this but just barely keeping the tail touching the ground. The sound it makes as the board is scraping is amazing. Great to do over grids & grates. Just hard to keep consistent as sometimes you'll end up actually doing an ollie.
