@@weonsbr Same here. Skated for maybe two years and never did a proper Ollie and had no one to show me. If it popped to the ground I assumed it was a fail and always tried to avoid it.
I remember back in my skating days in the early 2000's, someone gave me a great tip. I was trying to ollie over a smallish skateboard stack, and he noticed I was concentrating too much on getting the front foot over. As soon as he said to focus on pulling your back foot as high as possible, I was jumping over people. I made that last bit up, but the rest is true. Vast improvement.
One thing to always remember when first learning to ollie: YOU have to bring the board off the ground. The board does not lift you off the ground. When I see people first learning to ollie they often appear to be thinking so much about foot placement and front foot movement that they seem to have forgotten you gotta jump. All the footwork ain't gonna mean diddly if you just smack your tail and slide your foot. It's an extremely unintuitive thing to do which is why it's so frustrating at times.
Exactly my problem when i was young. By watching people making very high jump I thought the pop of the deck were propulsing the rider. Complete mistake! A Ollie is a body jump first of all. Then you play with the bord to elevate it so it will follow your movement.
I just realised this the other day. Trying to get kickflips (still haven't, but close!). I was having trouble landing back on the board, until I finally came to the realisation that I was focused too much on the spin and I actually have to jump my ass up into the air and land on the damn thing. It sounds so obvious now.
Could you give me a tip. My problem is that I jump at least it feels like it but I weirdly only lift my knees. My upper body stays the same. I don't really know how to fix it.
finally your right ear doesn't feel lonely and the audio level is ok! So glad you figured out how to use a mic the right way jonny! good luck with your ollies!
I missed the Monosound! nooot :P Jonny, question, I pull my 78,74 inch Ollie and the Heelflip like kick/ verialkickflip with the foot peak. I get very very high with this alian technology. But if i pull this way without using my heel, is it still a Heelflip?
Hey Jonny, just a little advice: I couldn´t learn how to ollie for a long three weeks because I didn´t really understand the pop. Then sometime, I saw a video of Tony Hawk explaining it, saying that you actually try to pop the tail down so it kind of "jumps" over its edge. That´s the fantastic "pop" noise. Once I had that down and understood that the tail should pop over the edge, I got the ollie down in two hours the next day and was happy as ever. Just a little tip, whenever I see these ollie videos they don´t really emphasize that, but I personally think it´s the aspect of it that matters most.
Hi Jonny, fellow Swiss here. You should try tu use some free audio edition software, like audacity for example. Just turn up the volume, maybe add compression, and try to get your volume to 0db. I personally like VirtualDj the best, it's visually so easy to understand. Otherwise, I really like your skateboarding, I hope you'll get more recognition soon. Not as a youtuber but as a professional athlete.
The trick, as with all things about skating, is to be relaxed. Once you're loose, you'll find everything considerably easier. It won't make you amazing, you still have to work at it but it'll make the process more fluid.
Haven't skated in 15-20 years, almost in my 40's now, and watching your videos past weeks... U made me order a new board today, it gets delivered tomorrow. I'm really exited to get back on a deck and see how fast i can relearn any tricks. Keep up the awesome video's, i subrscribed!!
good choice man, just be careful! I'm 25 and didn't skateboard since grade 9 which i as about 13 or 14 and I decided to order a board as well! came in 2 weeks ago, so much fun Unfortunately messed my foot up landing my first ever Kickflip lol so cant rip until tmrw or the next day
Here is a tip for anybody trying to get the ollie down. Its not so much as how hard you pop as it is the timing. Its all in the snap of the pop on your backfoot. You wanna spring up with it and not focus on putting too much pressure on that backfoot. Also dont be afraid to put that frontfoot further back than Johnny did in the video. Everybody is different and has diff foot positioning for every trick. Whatever works for you works. Just experiment and most of all have fun!
Skated from 15 to 18 and you make me feel like skating again (I'm 31). My skate hero was Rodney and this is how I discovered your vids. Good content, good skills. Thanks.
Same skated from 12 - 15, learned kickflips, heelflips, shovits and watches rodney mullen on a daily, now I am 26 and I havent touched a skateboard in years and I just started watching this vids again :P
Same here. I skated when I was 16/17 (I was even able to ollie over three boards primo-stacked, which was quite impressive imho) and then I stopped due to ankle injury. Now I'm 34 and... well, I just bought a skateboard for my 6yo daughter, and I thought, why not? And bought another one for me. It's officially "to teach her", but in reality, I just want to learn what I couldn't as a teen
I’m 30 I started at 11. I was On and off through high school. I decided to never stop anymore at 20. Adulthood makes it difficult to find the time/energy but it’s worth it. I’m 30 Still kickflipping onto lunch tables with the youngsters and back tails on ledges. I don’t feel the least bit out of place. I wish I could give you this feeling. It never gets old. Don’t let go of it if you’re old just fuckn go do it. Just do hip stretches before you skate and any soreness will be normal muscle soreness ...seriously, don’t forget stretch the hips gentlemen.
I'm in the same boat man! Haven't skated for 15-20 years (turning 39 this year!), watching Giger's vids recreating Rodney's tricks made me fall in love again and i just ordered a new deck today! Gets delivered tomorrow and i got the day off, so exited to get back on a board!!!
I been skating my whole life but never perfected Ollie's... I'm 41 years old and better at skating then I've ever been just by figuring out how to Ollie. I'm finally above the coping on mini ramps too! Pads help overcome fear of falling!!!
When I was younger I constantly tried to get better at ollies. At a certain point I learned to tuck my knees up to my chest to get them higher but I literally had to make a mental note of doing that before I popped. It almost felt like an entirely different trick learning how to tuck the knees. Hopes this helps somebody.
thissss! in my case, i actually had to simulate the whole motion of the ollie without the deck first. meaning doing random funny jumps on the ground and then trying to remember the whole motion on the deck!
I gave up skating when I was 15. After watching your videos it made me want to try again. I'm 26. I popped my first successful Ollie, WHILE RIDING TOO, today. I got about 8 inches off the ground. I was so happy. If you ever read this - thank you. Better late than never.
I'm skating for 2 years and I see a lots trick tips but anybody explains how your body weight have to work and it's something so important. And i have ollies done but i never tried a bonned ollie, so thanks you a lot jonny.
I watched this video today for the first time, started skating last week and landed my first ollie within 5 minutes.. thank you, Jonny! I appreciate your enthusiasm, wisdom and grace to share it with us.
3:07 Ok, so the way to perfect ollie is: 18 + 124/876% - [(87 + E2 + 87*)/(16 - 987)]2 : [2+(765 - 125) - (756 = 87 - 78)] = PE (Perfect Ollie) More or less. PS. You make amazing, beautiful ollie mate!
I ve watched so many videos about how to ollie straight and you really hit the bell! super nice music and best one in serious tipps and describing. thanks! max
15 years of skating and I love your tip about bring it back. The boneyard is full over and my back foot is loving the extended double duty. thanks for the spices. tricks are tasting much better! !
The secret to the ollie is timing. Nearly everyone learning ollies believes that they have to pop then level really fast. NOT TRUE. The correct timing will come to you after practice, practice, practice. The more you do, the better you get.
True, Ollies are one of those tricks that you need to practice for a long time, there's people who get desperate with this trick (including me when i was younger) years later i got back on my board and started doing ollies every day, at first you will do them rocket and 1 inch off the ground lol, but you just gotta keep doing them A LOT, and you will eventually get them higher and better, its one of those tricks where you constantly progress at them even after months/years of skating (took me around 6 months to get a nice solid ollie) (i have not tried to bone them which means they're not perfect and i still need to progress at them see?) :)
thank you so much jonny, i've watched braille's vids to help perfect ollies and then this video comes around to help as well. more tutorial videos would be cool to see
Thanks for this video! I just started skating and did my first ollies stationary. I make videos of my progress everyday and your video just came at perfect timing. :) Thanks for the great tips! :)
Thanks for this video! I recently got back into skateboarding and realized my Ollie’s were never that good. I watched this and did that “tweak” thing with my back foot and BAM! I was self taught before the days of RUclips, so this was really helpful. Cheers!
Wow, I've just started learning to skate again and was having trouble with the Ollie. Turns out it was the placement of my back foot! After watching this video I got a better ollie after just a few tries. Thank you!
Great video Jonny!!! I am a 39 year-old beginner and I have been attempting ollie for a few weeks now. The were small but just moving my feet to the positions that you showed made me gain more height on them. Thanks pal!!!
your killing it! I have more faith in my riding after watching your videos. if audio is the only thing to worry about in your content, your on a great path
realy good Video mate ! i just started a year ago and i think i just landed my first Olli a couple of days ago. but this video will help me massivly to get more into skateboarding i am a Longboard rider tho :D i would love to see more "how to do easy moves" videos like this how to manual, Nosemanual, usw. perfekt would be you on a longboard but hey.... i wouldn't mind if its even on a regular board, i think i can adopt a lot of things that will speed up my progress in boarding cheers for all the ggod entertainment so far and keep on skating ! :)
Your videos makes me want to start again after 11 years. I'm 28 now but i'm quite afraid of not being good at anything i've learned those years ago. :-(
Vielen vielen dank Jonny! War immer unsicher wo ich meine Füße haben soll. Werd deine Tipps gleich morgen probieren. Vllt wirds ja mein erster Ollie ;)
i've been skating for a year but never rlly grinded on progressing just riding, ¡ practiced ollies for maybe 1 hour straight for today and landed consistently with a high pop ollie using his tips. like they always say ride almost everyday get comfortable and tricks will be so easy.
Just remember, ollie has nothing to do with strength or power, it's about timing and being really loose and fast. You need to be flexible and loose if you want to get them high. Stretch out before and during skating, warm up properly and remember, not power: flexibility, timing and swiftness.
After 30 years I have been Olling wrong . I never knew you were supposed to tweak the back foot I always kept it flat. So basically your supposed to do a ninja kick. Well I’m 45 now and stating skating again and I will be practicing how to do this now. Thank u
Hey I loved the "only dirty tricks" game of skate videos you did. could you do a video of how to do a hospital late flip? both of you guys had those on point and steezy :D
Hey Jonny, how about you make a video about how you're editing your videos, especially the sound and then we'll help you with it? There should be some creative people in your fan base as well;) love your vids
A week ago I ollied over the my garden hose and it seriously felt as if I'd won the nobel prize.
good job cuz thats actually difficult
Haha I ollied up a tiny curb and felt the same! 🤣
@@marcusgriffin0312 lol congrats same
I want that moment🤣😞
wait until you ollie down a stair set.
When I was like 12, back in 2001, I tried to learn an ollie without the internet and no help. Needless to say I never learned to ollie.
Bro i literally skated for like 5years as a kid and never knew you had to pop to do tricks😂💀 no wonder i never learnt that much flatground tricks
RockCh4lk i learned my kickflips and pop shuv it’s before rolling ollies so i think it’s possible just keep trying
took over one year for me to learn ollie without anyone telling me how to do it...

Tommy Mutsaers dumbass
Brilliant 😂
Heh
And Rodney mullen, darkslide over you
So simple, so difficult, so beautiful. The basis of most flatground skateboarding.
not only flatground
Safi yeah thats why he said MOST flatground
@@kovakitananah i think safi was saying that the ollie is the basis of other stuff in things like transition as well idk tho 🤷♂️
Yo Jonny this shit works I just ollied up a 10 stair
Lucas Vanderschuit only a 10 I did the Hollywood 16
i did a 20 stair ollie, after celebrating it I finally woke up :DD
I was stuck on an ollie up on 10 stairs. Now i can do it ! Just press ↑ ↑ before your ollie to do a boneless and jump higher, it's easy.

If they're getting worse it's most likely a rhythmic thing or something. Has your timing been off? Your technique?

Right on point! Nothing beats time on board if you want to progress! Way to go!
I remember watching this right when it came out. Now I have tres on lock, wow time flies
I’ve never tried twisting my back foot before while I Ollie. Thanks for the tip bro
Just remember, ollie has nothing to do with strength or power, it's about timing and being really loose and fast.
You need to be flexible and loose if you want to get them high. Stretch out before and during skating, warm up properly and remember, not power: flexibility, timing and swiftness.

THANK YOU JONNY.
I could watch Jonny all day.
Your foot positioning was both informative and oddly hilarious.
Dude you helped me thank you so much
After 30 years I have been Olling wrong . I never knew you were supposed to tweak the back foot I always kept it flat. So basically your supposed to do a ninja kick. Well I’m 45 now and stating skating again and I will be practicing how to do this now. Thank u
This is so helpful thanks
Thanks! Instantly made my ollies sexier and more consistent!!
I've found it helps to actively think about landing bolts and not on the tail with the back foot
Thanks for letting me know u gotta push ur front foot down I’ve been waiting for the slide to level the board out for me
thanks for this info it really helped
Thanks Jhonny I swept ma leg like in the movie n did a double ollie. I would recommend
Hey I loved the "only dirty tricks" game of skate videos you did. could you do a video of how to do a hospital late flip? both of you guys had those on point and steezy :D
Quick tip: something That helped me was to bring up that back foot more to go over stuff. It lifts the back truck so it doesn’t get stuck.
Thank you, man!!!
Your Ollie look like side kicks. Very nice
Jonny e minha inspiração para andar de skate essas dicas me ajudaram muito
Hey Jonny, how about you make a video about how you're editing your videos, especially the sound and then we'll help you with it? There should be some creative people in your fan base as well;) love your vids
Yeah I still have it turned up all the way and have to replay several parts to understand what he is saying.. and it's not the accent.
Hey you got your "obstacle"s right =)
Johnny,you saved me.🙏🙏
keep killing it
I know I can ollie quite high when theres nothing in front of me, but once there is even a 2 inch obstacle, i choke.
feel you lmao
same 😹
for real tho
me too
Samee standing I got a boned out ollie one time that went up two feet but the second there’s something in front of me I barely get off the ground
Namaste .. im from nepal. And i love your videos ❤
Your ollie looks sooooo good 🧸 namaste
I love this video my Ollie's have leveled out because of it
I'm gonna try, thanks!
