One thing people don't talk about. Your board has to be weightless before it pops. That way when you drag your front foot and lift your back, there's nothing keeping it down. Bend your knees, jump and right before your feet leave the board, pop. That's where the timing comes in for the most part. Jump, pop and right before you leave the board, pop. You wanna start popping as you straighten your legs at the last part of the jump. Then slide your foot until your nose stops your foot. I guarantee you'll get your Ollie faster if you think about it like this. Remember, no weight on the board. JUMP!
That's what is happening with me... To be honest, it has happened when I was younger and I couldn't Ollie... And it's happening today as I'm older and getting back to skating... It's frustrating lol. But I'll get there with these tips! Thanks!
Wow! You broke this down the way I break down piano practice to my students. I really appreciate the steps and the time durations. I just picked up a board after 30 years of not skating, because my girls want to learn how to skate. This is very helpful, as I’m no longer a spring chicken. Lol
There is a girl who does a tutorial on ollies.. And I think her video is better... She makes it clear that on the pop the foot shouldn't really make contact with the floor... You've got to somewhat flick the tail.
Yo bro Go to the park again, practice practice practice. Other Skaters wont look at you Like "ey that guy is a skate looser". They will Help U. Ask us if u see us skating. We all are cool chilled people who enjoy seeing other people learning Skateboarding. We are one fam bro
@@victorangeles655 don't worry what other people think, do it for you. Most of the time people really don't care what others are doing and three ones that do will most likely be impressed with you getting something new.
LIFE TIP: I was doing the steps, popping and flicking, and still wasn’t getting my back wheels off the ground. If you’re new, bend your knees more and crouch, that’s what helped me. I landed my first Ollie in 2 days because of that.
King Pig hahah no I didn’t start, due to the corona virus some parts couldn’t be delivered. Everything got delayed 😒but I will let you know how the first day went
Before I started watching Braille I was hopeless at doing an Ollie. I practiced for months! But after I watched this vid, I finally picked up my board and I managed to do an Ollie within three days of practicing! So amazing how one video can change your perspective on skateboarding.
@@OHDAMNAGHOST77 my progress is slowly getting better, im practicing at skateboarding goofy (im a regular) and trying to get a better balance, and im also practicing a little bit of ollie
Bill Buttlicker I thought your family built this country, so you could technically open the school yourself as you built it. But unless you are not Bill Buttlicker, then IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE JIM!
I think one thing you forget is that at 4:25 when you actually do the Ollie your foot never plants into the floor like the practice step, it never even touches the floor. That’s what I had to realize after learning from your Ollie videos. Especially since planting your foot seems to mess up or at least for me messed up my back leg coming up
Yep.. Spot on... This is the major mistake in these vids... There is some geeky girl who explains it really well and that thing is major... When you do that pop thing don't take the foot to all the way down to the ground with that tail thing... You've got to kick your foot down so the tail hits the ground but your foot mustn't follow down to the ground with that tail.... Yep... Spot on.
I was about to comment this as well. I learnt how to Ollie from this video but I feel like it took a lot longer because I didn't realize that your foot never stays on the tail and instead is actually on its way up even before the tail makes xo tact with the gound
Aaron isn't kidding when he says you gotta get comfortable just riding around on your board. I started skating one summer ago and I decided to just take the entire year to ride around, turn, go fast, go slow, balance on one foot, so on and so forth before ever trying to Ollie or do any tricks. It made an absolute world of difference, and now in my second year skating I'm learning to Ollie.
I’m learning to skateboard at 37 this video definitely earned yourself a sub. Thank you for breaking this down it’s perfect and will definitely let you know how I progress with these exercises
I’m nearly 37, went a couple of years in my teens wanting to skate well but never really had the commitment. Excited to have a go again….but summer is nearly over 🤦♂️
This tutorial has helped me so much i have been skating for 8 months and i just recently started trying ollies, i watched this tutorial many times. it helped much, i did my first ollie up a curb today.
I've literally been practicing on my skateboard everyday from 3 o'clock, to 5, or maybe 6 o'clock if I'm feeling productive. I wanna take a step further to increase my training so I can do more fun things with my skateboard since I adore skateboarding.
What foot do I use to slide cuz I’ve been using my left foot to slide and I’m right footed. Ive been trying it for 3 days straight. Am I doing it wrong?
it's raining today and after i watched this i went outside and tried. heres the checklist. comfortable riding- yes popping- yes sliding foot- yes ollie- no
I just started got back in skateboarding after years of not being in it, but my nine year old daughter wanted to get into it, as I did. We are bought learning new tricks, well, I’m learning them again after all those years. I followed you guy’s and you input is great. We watched this video over and over again to learn. Thank you very much. Bernard
Why can’t we have nice roads and pavements in the uk Literally all the roads are bumpy and pebbly and cracked Also most skateparks are full of teenagers smoking
QWERTY Art bro here in madrid (cap of spain lmao) we live in hills... the whole city is in hills so like every street is a ramp and haves a bunch of cracks and bumps and like the pavement haves some weird af patterns so harder wheels get stuck so fucking easy
This is so true. My school is only a 10 minute walk away but skating over all the bumps and curves makes me feel like I just did a marathon. Not to mention all the people that are completely oblivious to skateboarders and expect me to just Ollie over them
Things I’ve learned on trying an Ollie and giving up three times over the course of 8 years) something they don’t tell you is when to pop. Imagine your jump has three stages, the push down, the push up, and the release. The key is to pop RIGHT as you finish pushing up and your legs start to straighten. Second main thing is that the sliding foot is not only for stabilizing, that slide helps pull the bird up for higher Ollie’s. So if you’re stuck not getting enough pop, try pulling the board up with your sliding foot more.
I just found my board in the basement. I’ll turn 60 in October. I skated from ‘73 to ‘79 and then again when my son started skating. That was from ‘98 to 2000. I chipped my hip slamming hard after catching my back truck while trying to Ollie up a 3-stair with my son and decided to hang it up because I was coaching soccer and needed to not be sidelined from my occupation. I just skated for an hour this morning and my goal is to land a tre-flip by my 60th birthday. This vid helped remind me of some stuff and made it easier to see because I skate goofy. Thanks for sharing your work and insights!
*FOR ANYONE LEARNING HOW TO OLLIE ONLY* I learned how to ollie in just 2 days. Today being one of them. If you are trying to pop too much then try to stop that habit. Also don't lean towards your back foot, lean towards your front foot. That was my key to success. Before you fully commit but after the steps given by Aaron in the video, try stepping off with your back foot after popping and focus on your front foot dragging up the board. Do that for a while. After that try committing. Leaning towards your front foot should help with the board not going in front of you. I hope that anyone reading this can find success after reading this.
+Corey Smith definitely gonna have to try this. I've been trying to Ollie ever since I got my skateboard 2 years ago but I usually bail out of it and just ride around for a few hours instead of actually practicing lol
Okay, haven't yet tried it yet (just watched now), but I really appreciate that -- in contrast to so many other "how to ollie" videos out there -- he didn't present a "trick" to getting it other than repetitive practice and making sure you're comfortable on the board. This feels like the right way to learn it.
Here’s the step for anyone who missed them: Step one: vibe with your board Step two: *p0p* Step three: destroy your shoes so you don’t look like a poser Step four: step on the other side Step five: get out your stop watch Step six: full send the ollie and there you go
I just started skating again a couple of days ago and im the only girl there… i used to be terrified to skate in front of people because i hate being judged.. i was trying to ollie for like an hour and some kid came up to me introduced himself and took the time to help me out.. i didnt get very far cuz i was hella nervous but this video helped me so much! Cant wait to try again tomorrow
I've notice when people are first learning to Ollie, their back foot stays down way too long after the pop. Which we all did when we were learn. But then when you finally get that eureka moment and it all comes together! I remember popping and getting my back foot up in the air as quick as I could as my front foot was dragging my board through the air. Or something like that. Its hard for me to put it into words. That was 1984. We didn't know what a helmet was. Lol "Not the first Try!"✌❤
As soon as I tell people I have a skateboard there like do a trick and I'm like I don't know how to do one then they say your not a real skater The stupidity
And can ollie fingerboards repeatedly. I learned that 25 years ago somehow when tech decks first dropped. Bout to try real skating again. I REALLY want to ollie. I keep thinking i can do it when i watch videos then i try and just get frustrated lol.
@@sliderx1897 gid up there, I turn 38 next week. Bought a Santa Cruz during lockdown, got my money's worth in 2 evenings, skating carparks at midnight and beyond
OMG! I'm a skater who started back in the late 70's, that should tell you how old i am. I could never ollie and i tried and tried. Your video made the process look so easy. I'm stoked. I just ordered some wheels and will be building a deck soon. Can't wait to get back on board and ollie down the street. Thanks so much!
I'm very probably younger than you since I'm born in 1990 but I can also relate in that you're saying. RUclips makes such a huge difference. Younger skaters will not understand the struggle it used to be to learn things. This is especially true when you lived in smaller cities. I'm gonna try Ollie again today.
Landed my first ollie today! and your videos have been very helpful, thank you! Took about a month of just riding around mostly everyday, and today I forced myself to take the next step to learn this.
I saw this video a while back and decided it looked cool to Ollie. So I got my first real board, it’s been 7 weeks and I can Ollie almost 10 inches now. Thank you Aron.
My town sucks the only places to skate are rough pebbly roads/parking lots, uneven sidewalks and a super tiny skatepark Edit: nvm I can just skate in my high school
I’m too scared to do anything on my board. I love skateboarding, I love progressing, but I get to scared to do anything on my board on pavement. I can do it on the grass decently, but I don’t pop the board enough. I’m progressing everyday. Thank you so much. I watch braille everyday. Thank you for being my encouragement.

You’re.... sorry
I just found my board in the basement. I’ll turn 60 in October. I skated from ‘73 to ‘79 and then again when my son started skating. That was from ‘98 to 2000. I chipped my hip slamming hard after catching my back truck while trying to Ollie up a 3-stair with my son and decided to hang it up because I was coaching soccer and needed to not be sidelined from my occupation. I just skated for an hour this morning and my goal is to land a tre-flip by my 60th birthday. This vid helped remind me of some stuff and made it easier to see because I skate goofy.
Thanks for sharing your work and insights!
Dude your almost 60 and skating that's awesome
Me: practices for 2 hours
Ollie: non-existent
HUGE FACTS
😹😹😹😿
I’m trying to hard I broke my leg and I can’t do anything anymore
*FOR ANYONE LEARNING HOW TO OLLIE ONLY*
I learned how to ollie in just 2 days. Today being one of them. If you are trying to pop too much then try to stop that habit. Also don't lean towards your back foot, lean towards your front foot. That was my key to success. Before you fully commit but after the steps given by Aaron in the video, try stepping off with your back foot after popping and focus on your front foot dragging up the board. Do that for a while. After that try committing. Leaning towards your front foot should help with the board not going in front of you. I hope that anyone reading this can find success after reading this.
Thanks I'll try that I've been trying to olié for 3 days now !!! And still haven't made much progress
Breyden Did it work? It worked for me.
+Corey Smith definitely gonna have to try this. I've been trying to Ollie ever since I got my skateboard 2 years ago but I usually bail out of it and just ride around for a few hours instead of actually practicing lol
+Vulkatiian Dexi same. Lol
Thanks, will try this next time
I just landed my first ollie and i feel so accomplished 😭💗
how long did it take you?
Nice
@@romanehity2724 it took me 3 weeks to land first ollie haha
That s right!
Good for you, I'm 36 and trying to learn this crap all over again to teach my kid. Keep it up.
I’ve been skateboarding for years, and I’ve always had trouble with Ollie’s and this video helped me land it.
Me 1 year ago: Ok i got this
Also me after a year: Still cant ollie
Edit: i just did my first ollie after 1 year hihi
Same im so scared to jump lol
yeah dude same lol
aah I feel you T-T yeee congrats 💫
Im Nayeonジ how do you pop harder?
I did it in 2 days
I’m 38, and recently decided to get a skateboard. BEST ADVICE EVER!! Just ride!!
awesome, good luck!!
Same! Just takes longer to heal now lolz. I saw that 70 year old dude and I was like damn... I better get off my ass, no more “I’m too old”. 😂
That’s so cool I’m 16 and want to learn to skateboard. I hope by the time I get to 18 I can skate comfortably and do some alright tricks.
So your a dad that skateboards? That’s awesome
David Hudson haha datway
This man makes me feel like I can do anything finally got my confidence to skate back again after breaking my leg
So proud of you! That takes a lot of courage, u got this!!
proud of youuuu :)
Same here! Except I sprained it
dam
Proud of you buddy, you got this!
Okay, haven't yet tried it yet (just watched now), but I really appreciate that -- in contrast to so many other "how to ollie" videos out there -- he didn't present a "trick" to getting it other than repetitive practice and making sure you're comfortable on the board. This feels like the right way to learn it.
Just ride your board .... best advice EVER!
+Vault Boy *"So Simple, Yet So Affective!"*
+Vault Boy *"So Simple, Yet So Affective!"*
it's actually good +Greg Jones
+Greg Jones I know he said it in the video, but seeing you write it out... now it makes SO MUCH SENSE
+Exon Alvarez Get wrecked wannabe grammar nazi
I love how this made 6 years ago but hes still going back and hearting and repliying
you tried ⭐️
At least say it when someone actually hearts and replies
nope. buddy he doesn't.
u look like ur begging for a heart
Lmao look at this bozo
Here’s the step for anyone who missed them:
Step one: vibe with your board
Step two: *p0p*
Step three: destroy your shoes so you don’t look like a poser
Step four: step on the other side
Step five: get out your stop watch
Step six: full send the ollie and there you go
the dude literally had OLLIE as a step, that's not helping.
What does poser mean ?
@@edifatkinson7641 some onw who fakes skateboarding to look "cool"
Brenya Dickens oh lol thanks
I just started skating again a couple of days ago and im the only girl there… i used to be terrified to skate in front of people because i hate being judged.. i was trying to ollie for like an hour and some kid came up to me introduced himself and took the time to help me out.. i didnt get very far cuz i was hella nervous but this video helped me so much! Cant wait to try again tomorrow
Right leg: okay just push the back down
Left leg : leg.exe has stopped
it’s not just pushing the back down, you only push it down with your foot. and like he said, just keep practicing those 2 steps just without the jump
Haww LmAOo
I need to learn to Ollie so I can Ollie over the Area 51 fence
pinkluna :D same
👌
Lol. Nice one
That fence is way to high
I give you a jump boost from minecraft
guy: you need to get to know your skateboard
Me: ok!
me: hello skateboard, how are you doing today?
Dad jokes, classic

*im laughing way to hard at that*
YourTypicalWolf its better bc i gotta old ass man with a hugs beard on mine
H a h a h a. I guess you're a dad
I've notice when people are first learning to Ollie, their back foot stays down way too long after the pop. Which we all did when we were learn. But then when you finally get that eureka moment and it all comes together! I remember popping and getting my back foot up in the air as quick as I could as my front foot was dragging my board through the air. Or something like that. Its hard for me to put it into words. That was 1984. We didn't know what a helmet was. Lol "Not the first Try!"✌❤
"Ride your board in your house!"
Carpet: Im gonna ruin this man whole career
The Ollie, it can take 1 day or 1 year
Edit: It took me 2 months but I can’t do it that well
LMAOOO BEST COMMENT EVER
Or 2 days and 1year and 1 day
I did in one day.
XD MemeLover XD took me 2 months

Learning how to skateboard when I don't even own a skateboard
I like your style
@@brailleskateboarding I love how you answered even tho video was uploaded 6 years ago
pupa ¿ lmaooo
This is just like learning to play a video game but not having it.
Same tho
after wanting to try skateboarding for years i finally started yesterday. honestly one of the fun-ist things ive ever done
mAnS really said: destroy your shoes and then magically do an ollie
EXACTLY
FR HE JUST WENT FROM SLIDE YOUR SHOES TO THE WHOLE JUMP I DONT GET IT
thats not the point
Thats how skateboarding works
Jesus Christ, yeah
This was great, I'm 61 and I'm going to do a Ollie
Did you do an ollie already?
Yes but its only 2 inches off the ground, i guess baby steps?
guy bartlett that’s actually great dude
guy bartlett you go dude, thats awesome
guy bartlett go for it man!
San francisco is literally the BEST place to skate at. So smooth I love spending time skating at pier 39
I hesitate to skate in public, so I usually just go to isolated places to skate
John Doe theres no shit at pier 39 theres shit in the tenderloin
@@waterarts3442 yea bro me too
Bro i live in a place where the streets are bumpy as shit and the sidewalks have hella cracks. I have to practice on my miniature driveway
John Doe corn ball
thank you!!! i’ve been just skating with no tricks since i was 11 and ive tryed to learn how to ollie for forever
As soon as I tell people I have a skateboard there like do a trick and I'm like I don't know how to do one then they say your not a real skater
The stupidity
yeahhh
Stupid trash talk, idiots trying to act tough. Ignore it everyone had to learn somehow.
Same. I hate it when my school mates do that. Especially if they can't even skate.

My Friend Said It’s Easy Riding Skateboard When He Tried Riding Mine He Fell Immediately
“You can ride everywhere!”
*me with roads that have a ton of gravel so it makes it feel like I’m on an earthquake when I ride* 👁👄👁
ughh frr or there so many cars i stg
relatable
Same 🙄
deadas i fall because of the ground not to mention its loud AF
@@megangallagher9359 yuh them ears by POUNDING
Aaron: Ride your board everywhere
Small town roads: no
lmao literally, i live in england the roads are BAD
I live in Italy, it's literally impossibile use the skateboard in the roads.
I sneak to the fancy houses during the night and bomb their street because the pavements are new and smooth
yeah same the only bit that's smooth is a tiny path near the football pitch but it's always full of 6yr olds rollerskating and scooting
I live in the hood, I have to to go to nice neighborhoods to skate
After 5000 years I finally did an Ollie, then when I tried again I fell off my board-
Atleast you did it !!
And how is it now ?
thats skating for ya
10 months later; how’s it going?
@@rosaparks8688 I mastered the Ollie now I'm working on kick flip lol
thanks i just did my first ollie
.
.
.

in my fingerboard
thats almost harder tho :D
And can ollie fingerboards repeatedly. I learned that 25 years ago somehow when tech decks first dropped. Bout to try real skating again. I REALLY want to ollie. I keep thinking i can do it when i watch videos then i try and just get frustrated lol.
@Aaron Jukkola no way, I learnt in a day and I've been trying to Ollie for a month
hahaha
Ahahahaahahhaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😂😂😂

I've not set foot on a skateboard for 25 years. I couldn't ollie then, I'm nailing it this week.
Did you get it?
update! update!
@@madisonwhite1895 yeah technically I can ollie, whilst stationary, and it ain't pretty
@@angusmcmungachuck3667 im 38 and finally trying to learn
@@sliderx1897 gid up there, I turn 38 next week. Bought a Santa Cruz during lockdown, got my money's worth in 2 evenings, skating carparks at midnight and beyond
OMG! I'm a skater who started back in the late 70's, that should tell you how old i am. I could never ollie and i tried and tried. Your video made the process look so easy. I'm stoked. I just ordered some wheels and will be building a deck soon. Can't wait to get back on board and ollie down the street. Thanks so much!
HAHA yes!
I LOVE your vibe!!!
I'm very probably younger than you since I'm born in 1990 but I can also relate in that you're saying.
RUclips makes such a huge difference. Younger skaters will not understand the struggle it used to be to learn things. This is especially true when you lived in smaller cities.
I'm gonna try Ollie again today.
@@jean4j_ born the same year. Never could get the Ollie down growing up, going back to it now. I just landed my first one today. We aren't dead yet ,
How did you go?!
Landed my first ollie today! and your videos have been very helpful, thank you! Took about a month of just riding around mostly everyday, and today I forced myself to take the next step to learn this.
That is awesome, great job

Hahahah
I know this is years old but just wanted to say, I’m 22 just starting to skate again and your videos have been a huuuge help to me ✊🏽 💯
I’m too scared to do anything on my board. I love skateboarding, I love progressing, but I get to scared to do anything on my board on pavement. I can do it on the grass decently, but I don’t pop the board enough. I’m progressing everyday. Thank you so much. I watch braille everyday. Thank you for being my encouragement.
Him: “destroy your shoes doing this step” Me: “ finally I can Ollie, but at what cost”
At abt 40-80$ if your getting vans 😂

It happened
Really,,, no "paid", no gain.
Me: puts a picture of a skateboard on my story
Everyone: SkAtER BoI or Do A TrIcK
I feel you, the people that skate where i live just skate for "fashion"
Then dont put a pic of it in your story dumbass
Why you putting it on your story then
Patrick Holland The point wasn’t because I put it on my story it was that I just got teased “SkateR BoI”
@@zachatfield2455 no the point is that if you don't want to get teased for something then don't broadcast it
This guy helped me so much with skateboarding. Im working on doing an ollie but he gives so much tips and tricks and i really appreciate it.
Yes awesome!
