Being comfortable on your board is top priority. I've found the more comfortable i'm getting on my board the better my ollies are getting. Great video JB.
Absolutely. But to also to be skating often. Practice your Ollie everyday at different times of the day . So your are used to being on your board. The more you are in the environment of your board, the better.
@@Dezelbub so true. Also good for getting back into it after you've been away from it for a while. It also helps me to just enjoy being on my board without the frustration of not being able to do a trick as good or easy as I used to. I just start cruising, rolling around carving gradually increasing speed, feeling the weight of my body as a shift side to side, then throw in some light ollies. After linking more consecutive sessions and times when I can't skate, I do some ollies in the grass or in the garage, or in front of the house. Then after a few weeks of this my skills and endurance are back up. Also, like JB said, stretching helps big time, I only wish I knew how beneficial stretching is when I first started skating, but since I have been doing it consistently for the last 10 years or so, I've noticed a major improvements in endurance, fatigue reduction and decrease muscle injury and less likely to get muscle cramps. I don't know how much longer I will be able to skate when I get old, but I will keep doing it while I can.
after 8 months of skating in total and like 6 months of practicing ollies, I am now able to ollie over/on to a curb, its so awesome! sadly its winter now and very cold and wet, so I cant skate nearly as much as I´d like, but thanks to your videos I´ve so much to look forward to learn when spring comes around :-) keep it up btw. for some reason I have an easier time ollying up a curb than off a curb, it really is a pure mental thing :D at first I couldnt even ollie over a tiny stick, cause it was somehow intimidating to ollie over something, even though I wouldve been able to roll over it anyway
oh I can relate. I'm still working on my ollie:-/ and the winter is not helping. no skatehalls here and all skateparks are wet and dirty. but one I will manage to do it...
Ayy that's great! I'm on my 5th month skating, and I kinda stopped for about 3 weeks bcus of exam and the skatepark where I usually train ollies, kickturn and so on is closed due to a some construction beside of the park, don't know how long is the construction is gonna be finished, super annoyed bout that. I felt a lil bit demotivated cause of that, but i tried to search some spot and found one more close to my home and definitely gonna go there this weekend lol
@@youalreadyknow5849 oh I feel ya pain.here there are only open skate parks and it's always wet and dirty😢 every week without skating I feel like forgetting everything I learned
i have a trick for those learning, try to apply pressure on your front foot towards the tip of the nose BEFORE you jump like u wanted to slide it up but u press on the grip so hard it doesnt move or like u wanted to spread apart your feet but they were glued to the floor (im running out of comparison) you will feel some tension between your legs like if you had an elastic band between your ankles when you pop doing ur board will instantly stick to ur feet ofc it's an "exagerated" technique for beginners (u always want to exagerate everything as you begin skating) i taught many people to ollie with this tip and they all said it made total sense

JB the foot placement parts are always such a big help. I literally just doubled the height of my Ollie by keeping my back foot closer to the tip of the tail. Thanks for always putting out quality content. If you have a website, a progression list of tricks for transition, flat ground, and street would be awesome for beginner and intermediate skaters.

Great ollie tutorial! I struggle a lot with keeping my butt between my feet during the setup, but after watching your video I think it's because I turn my body frontside while crouching down. That also rotates my butt so that it "point backwards" and gets over my back foot rather than in between my feet.

Another awesome instructive video, thanks JB! I learned how to get my board a few inches off the ground when I was 15 or so (around 1985), by doing a "scooping" motion, mainly with my back foot, but not tapping the tail. I thought that was an ollie (I didn't have any videos or instruction). Now all my ollies are "ghost ollies", and I'm basically having to learn a whole new trick (not easy at age 51). Young at heart, so I will try some more with these tips in mind.

Just started skating after an 18 year break. I can Ollie way better switch and I don’t know why. I don’t even have to try switch. Super weird. Loving the refreshers you provide.
Thanks JB! This is super helpful! The 'Aha!' monent came when u pointed out that the back foot should land on the Tail'!! I always thought the aim is to land on all 8 bolts covered...

Great vids! I have been skating for over 35 years and am turning 50- I am also pretty involved with the DIY concrete culture…so skating has kind of settled into bowl riding and slash grinds for me. I’m here to say that these videos are AMAZING for BOTH beginners and people like me who have built up certain habits over decades. My wife is 11 years younger and loves street skating…thanks to your videos I have my FS Ollie back!! It’s the “carved on a bank wall” (not the 180) ollie but heading out to mess with backside Ollies today (my white whale). Thanks a ton man! 😎 backyard bowl invite if you ever traveling in southern New Mex!

great video,👍 okay, I think I will loosen my trucks a bit (I always have some wheelbites) but other skaters also told me to make the trucks a lil bit loose to get more pop. my problem is that I can't ollie straight. always a little bit turning. tried everything to avoid it (back foot on the tail not concave)🤔😑but I will try to check every possible reason mentioned in the video
Brotha.. thank you so much man..ur Kool peeps for showing ur skills . I'm 47 yrs old I'm tryna get better at skateboarding but obviously it's not very easy anymore bcuz my body doesn't move as easy anymore . Basically restricting me to bein able to only do bowl carving. My kids think I'm the bees knees. I tend to think differently haha I just feel old I guess wat can u recommend so that I can also feel good about my skateboarding?
I feel you concerns dude! I’m 45 and mostly carve in the bowls. I know I have what it takes to get better but I feel something holding me back a bit. Aging body? Perhaps. A couple weeks ago I clicked as many Ollies I could in my Sunday morning session and I can still feel the ache in my back leg. I’m going to keep my board and shoes in my work truck to try 20 Ollies a day and see what happens, I have a feeling I’m just out of shape and can with practice I can get better ollies. Cheers bud!
I usually end up turning my board slightly heel side because of my shoulders turning forward just before I pop. It doesn't happen every time, but it's usually when I get either nervous or tired and don't feel confident in my ollie.
Thanks Ken, Pull your legs up higher under your body, this will typically require more speed and using a ramp helps you understand how the “holding” that you’re referring to works. More speed allows for shorter amount of time needed to clear the object. Same as if you run and jump over something. I cover these principles in my Better Ollies video. Cheers 💙🛹💙
my foot doesn't seem to slide. do you know what i'm doing wrong? also my leg that is at the tail of the board is having trouble jumping, i only seem to jump with the other leg. i've been riding since 8 but just started doing tricks at 12, i am now 13 and can't seem to do the smallest of the tricks. please helppp
Start with using a fence and film yourself so you can analyze in slow motion how your feet move and if your tail is striking the ground when you Ollie , it’s tricky to learn but you can do it 💙🛹💙
thanks for this video. i´m very curious why it should help to bend down earlier? in another "ollie higher" video the guy (norman woods) said the opposite (don´t stay down forever, bend down deep and spring up as quickly as you can). thanks for your insight
This video is for people who need help with fixing or learning their Ollie. Many people don’t bend down deep enough or in time to pop when needed. “Be prepared” so bend down and be ready Just Before you need to pop. You don’t need to bend down way early but you need to find your rhythm of bending down into your powerful pop as one smooth motion 💙🛹💙
great vid bro per usual! do you have any videos for frontside 360 ollies or cabs? I want to get those one day. finally bought my new deck, time to skate after its been 10 years or more
how am I supposed to jump forward/sideways/into the movement? everyone tells me i'm supposed to jump sligthly forwards to improve my ollies, but when I try to think of doing it I just cant figure out how is it physically possible to do that rolling on a skateboard. I practised on the ground and still can't translate it on the board, it just messes my ollies.
I've seen, that it could help to ollie sligthly backwards, so the board stays under you. Is this true? Greetings from germany. And thank you for your educational, quality content 💙
One thing people don't make clear is, don't slam your board down with your foot in the way most people think. That will pinch the tail and nothing will happen. Jump then use mostly your ankle to pop. Your weight has to come off the board in order to actually Ollie.
Great ollie tutorial! Very few tutorials - if any - talk about the motion of the front leg/knee. For example, at 8:17 it looks like your front knee is moving forward quite a lot, which will leave the front knee "pointing forward", while the front foot is quite "far behind" the knee. Do you actively think about "lifting" the front knee forward rather than lifting it straight up towards your chest?
Being comfortable on your board is top priority. I've found the more comfortable i'm getting on my board the better my ollies are getting. Great video JB.
💙🛹🙌🏽🛹💙
Absolutely. But to also to be skating often. Practice your Ollie everyday at different times of the day . So your are used to being on your board. The more you are in the environment of your board, the better.

true. never rush. and always get your basics done and improve them.

Please do one for kickflips! I love how detailed you go into these lessons!
Kickflips is already made, check my channel, thanks 💙🛹💙
after 8 months of skating in total and like 6 months of practicing ollies, I am now able to ollie over/on to a curb, its so awesome!
sadly its winter now and very cold and wet, so I cant skate nearly as much as I´d like, but thanks to your videos I´ve so much to look forward to learn when spring comes around :-)
keep it up
btw. for some reason I have an easier time ollying up a curb than off a curb, it really is a pure mental thing :D at first I couldnt even ollie over a tiny stick, cause it was somehow intimidating to ollie over something, even though I wouldve been able to roll over it anyway
first ollie up a curb is the best feeling
oh I can relate. I'm still working on my ollie:-/ and the winter is not helping. no skatehalls here and all skateparks are wet and dirty. but one I will manage to do it...
I’ve been trying ollies for 3 or 4 months now and I’m really starting to get them more consistently and higher
Ayy that's great! I'm on my 5th month skating, and I kinda stopped for about 3 weeks bcus of exam and the skatepark where I usually train ollies, kickturn and so on is closed due to a some construction beside of the park, don't know how long is the construction is gonna be finished, super annoyed bout that. I felt a lil bit demotivated cause of that, but i tried to search some spot and found one more close to my home and definitely gonna go there this weekend lol
@@youalreadyknow5849 oh I feel ya pain.here there are only open skate parks and it's always wet and dirty😢 every week without skating I feel like forgetting everything I learned
i have a trick for those learning, try to apply pressure on your front foot towards the tip of the nose BEFORE you jump
like u wanted to slide it up but u press on the grip so hard it doesnt move
or like u wanted to spread apart your feet but they were glued to the floor
(im running out of comparison)
you will feel some tension between your legs like if you had an elastic band between your ankles
when you pop doing ur board will instantly stick to ur feet
ofc it's an "exagerated" technique for beginners (u always want to exagerate everything as you begin skating)
i taught many people to ollie with this tip and they all said it made total sense
Thx a lot, I will definitely try it! I am struggling when trying to ollie rolling, I lean too much backwards... Cheers from Germany, bro🤘
💙🛹🙌🏽🛹💙
omg i’m gonna try this! thanks for the tip! i’ve been struggling with leveling out my ollies
YOURE LESSONS ARE BAD ASS!!! THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME FEEL MORE CONFIDENT, EXCITED AND WANTING TO GET OUT AND KEEP HAVING FUN ON MY BOARD!! ALOHA!!

HOLLLYYY FUCK 5 days straight of trying to Ollie and I finally listened to bend my back foot after the jump and actually went higher than I thought !!

That’s awesome!!! Please help others by sharing this video with anyone who needs it. Thanks so much and I’m stoked for you 🛹🙌🏽🛹
JB the foot placement parts are always such a big help. I literally just doubled the height of my Ollie by keeping my back foot closer to the tip of the tail.
Thanks for always putting out quality content.
If you have a website, a progression list of tricks for transition, flat ground, and street would be awesome for beginner and intermediate skaters.

Great ollie tutorial! I struggle a lot with keeping my butt between my feet during the setup, but after watching your video I think it's because I turn my body frontside while crouching down. That also rotates my butt so that it "point backwards" and gets over my back foot rather than in between my feet.
Sounds like you know how to improve! 🙌🏽🛹🙌🏽

Another awesome instructive video, thanks JB! I learned how to get my board a few inches off the ground when I was 15 or so (around 1985), by doing a "scooping" motion, mainly with my back foot, but not tapping the tail. I thought that was an ollie (I didn't have any videos or instruction). Now all my ollies are "ghost ollies", and I'm basically having to learn a whole new trick (not easy at age 51). Young at heart, so I will try some more with these tips in mind.

I was more curious if mid-40 something’s should still Ollie… your attention to detail is the best 🙌🏽
Excelente el fraccionamiento del ollie completo. Los tips excepcionales para los que estamos empezando y estamos estancados! Gracias!!!🙏
Just started skating after an 18 year break. I can Ollie way better switch and I don’t know why. I don’t even have to try switch. Super weird. Loving the refreshers you provide.
Learn at any age if you feel confident in the risk of falling. Thanks for all your support!!! 💙🛹💙
Thanks JB! This is super helpful! The 'Aha!' monent came when u pointed out that the back foot should land on the Tail'!! I always thought the aim is to land on all 8 bolts covered...

Great vids! I have been skating for over 35 years and am turning 50- I am also pretty involved with the DIY concrete culture…so skating has kind of settled into bowl riding and slash grinds for me. I’m here to say that these videos are AMAZING for BOTH beginners and people like me who have built up certain habits over decades. My wife is 11 years younger and loves street skating…thanks to your videos I have my FS Ollie back!! It’s the “carved on a bank wall” (not the 180) ollie but heading out to mess with backside Ollies today (my white whale). Thanks a ton man! 😎 backyard bowl invite if you ever traveling in southern New Mex!

great video,👍
okay, I think I will loosen my trucks a bit (I always have some wheelbites) but other skaters also told me to make the trucks a lil bit loose to get more pop. my problem is that I can't ollie straight. always a little bit turning. tried everything to avoid it (back foot on the tail not concave)🤔😑but I will try to check every possible reason mentioned in the video
Thanks Nane, typically it’s people spinning their shoulders into their pop. Good luck! 💙🛹💙
Brotha.. thank you so much man..ur Kool peeps for showing ur skills . I'm 47 yrs old I'm tryna get better at skateboarding but obviously it's not very easy anymore bcuz my body doesn't move as easy anymore . Basically restricting me to bein able to only do bowl carving. My kids think I'm the bees knees. I tend to think differently haha I just feel old I guess wat can u recommend so that I can also feel good about my skateboarding?
I feel you concerns dude! I’m 45 and mostly carve in the bowls. I know I have what it takes to get better but I feel something holding me back a bit. Aging body? Perhaps. A couple weeks ago I clicked as many Ollies I could in my Sunday morning session and I can still feel the ache in my back leg. I’m going to keep my board and shoes in my work truck to try 20 Ollies a day and see what happens, I have a feeling I’m just out of shape and can with practice I can get better ollies. Cheers bud!
Really you are great Sir 🙏

Yves. Thank you so much brother. I really appreciate your generosity and support. 🛹🙏🏽🛹
I usually end up turning my board slightly heel side because of my shoulders turning forward just before I pop. It doesn't happen every time, but it's usually when I get either nervous or tired and don't feel confident in my ollie.
Thanks josh

Yo JB such a thorough video about ollies! Any tips on 'holding' ollies in the air for longer? I seem to ground mine too quick!
Thanks Ken, Pull your legs up higher under your body, this will typically require more speed and using a ramp helps you understand how the “holding” that you’re referring to works.
More speed allows for shorter amount of time needed to clear the object. Same as if you run and jump over something.
I cover these principles in my Better Ollies video. Cheers 💙🛹💙
@@SkateparkLessons makes sense man, ill try, thanks so much! Always look forward to your vids! 🤙🏻🛹💙
So cool! ♥️
Yes you are 💙🏆💙
my foot doesn't seem to slide. do you know what i'm doing wrong? also my leg that is at the tail of the board is having trouble jumping, i only seem to jump with the other leg. i've been riding since 8 but just started doing tricks at 12, i am now 13 and can't seem to do the smallest of the tricks. please helppp
Start with using a fence and film yourself so you can analyze in slow motion how your feet move and if your tail is striking the ground when you Ollie , it’s tricky to learn but you can do it 💙🛹💙
okayyy tysm !!@@SkateparkLessons
Thx JB! I should fix my rocket ollie
💙🛹🙌🏽🛹💙
Love this channel
💙🙌🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽💙
fantastic vid
💙🙏🏽💙
thanks for this video. i´m very curious why it should help to bend down earlier? in another "ollie higher" video the guy (norman woods) said the opposite (don´t stay down forever, bend down deep and spring up as quickly as you can). thanks for your insight
This video is for people who need help with fixing or learning their Ollie. Many people don’t bend down deep enough or in time to pop when needed. “Be prepared” so bend down and be ready Just Before you need to pop. You don’t need to bend down way early but you need to find your rhythm of bending down into your powerful pop as one smooth motion 💙🛹💙
@@SkateparkLessons thanks for your feedback, makes perfectly sense!
great vid bro per usual! do you have any videos for frontside 360 ollies or cabs? I want to get those one day. finally bought my new deck, time to skate after its been 10 years or more
Coming soon 💙🛹💙
Great video! Please do the 360 flip? I reckon I can get it after watching your video 🤙
Coming soon 💙🛹💙
how am I supposed to jump forward/sideways/into the movement? everyone tells me i'm supposed to jump sligthly forwards to improve my ollies, but when I try to think of doing it I just cant figure out how is it physically possible to do that rolling on a skateboard. I practised on the ground and still can't translate it on the board, it just messes my ollies.
Think about the two differences when you stand still and hop straight up or lean forward to jump out 💙🛹💙
Nice dude
💙🛹🙏🏽🛹💙
Here because I loosened my trucks and now can’t Ollie :(
Just loosen them little by little over time, so you have time to get used to it and it doesn’t affect your tricks. 💙🛹💙
I've seen, that it could help to ollie sligthly backwards, so the board stays under you. Is this true?
Greetings from germany. And thank you for your educational, quality content 💙
No, that’s called a fakie Ollie and ultimately holding onto something while trying would be the best way to practice 💙🛹💙
very cool video, thank
💙🛹🙏🏽🛹💙
One thing people don't make clear is, don't slam your board down with your foot in the way most people think. That will pinch the tail and nothing will happen. Jump then use mostly your ankle to pop. Your weight has to come off the board in order to actually Ollie.

You’ll get it! Keep trying 💙🛹💙

Great ollie tutorial! Very few tutorials - if any - talk about the motion of the front leg/knee. For example, at 8:17 it looks like your front knee is moving forward quite a lot, which will leave the front knee "pointing forward", while the front foot is quite "far behind" the knee. Do you actively think about "lifting" the front knee forward rather than lifting it straight up towards your chest?
💙🛹🙌🏽🛹💙
Great video❤
