He kids if you're struggling learning how to Ollie, I learned it by popping the board and jumping forward. If you do that your foot will automatically go up on your board. I hope this is helpful for you guys.
@@bradybowman8835 if youre already moving and have momentum then you wont need to worry about exactly how far forwards, just jump in the forward direction and it will help
Exactly what makes the huge difference. I envision making a small circle/oval motion. Shifting the wait to the tail while crouching -> Extend & jump forward
Thanks for the hype everyone! ☺️ I did not quite manage the kickflip but I did land one half kickflip. I have still to find the sweet spot in the strength of the flick to have it rotate properly but only halfway, because my board would just kinda flop on the side with 0 pop. I managed quite a few of the ollies pushing down on the nose though 🛹 Did not get around to trying the shuvit tip, but I told it to a girl at the session and she managed to land her first shuvit that night! So I get overall George’s tips do help ☺️
@@apesounds3408 yo today I started to try to ollie and I was getting both wheels off the ground after all day, what I did to start to learn was jump pretty high and about a quarter second after I jumped I popped it really hard. Then I slid my foot forward. It only got like 3 inches off the ground but after about a half hour I was landing them consecutively
When he said "makes the trick click easily" That's actually true, in my experience everytime i try a new trick there's a sensation that feels like a "click" or a pop in your brain that immediately tells you how to do the trick
I did a kickflip years ago but i did it by accident i dont even know how I did it and i did it off a set of stairs on my outside porch and ive never been able to figure out how to do it since then .
@@justinreillyhyers85 i've been through that to, and is so weird to land something as a mistake, and ever after you learn it you don't actually understand how did you do that
I appreciate that he wears a helmet. It’s a good influence for those who want to skate. I know people think it’s dorky sometimes to wear all these protective things but in the long run I would rather have a head of construction not concussion.
Being an older skater, the helmet gives me the confidence to do more tricks with out any worrying. I can commit to more tricks = it makes me a better skater.
Thanks George- I have come back to skating after 30 years- I am 46, an RN and an Officer in the Australian Army and watching your vids not only keeps me stoked on skating but has helped me progress...you are a good egg! Keep the vids coming mate!
This video needs more credit. These are actually really good tips. Instead of keep stating what you have to do, he actually gave tips to make it easier to land. I hate when shuvits don't land under me. Im also scared to land a kickflip with both feet. Thanks for the tips!
George the timing of your vids yo. You always release them as I’m out in the middle of a sesh. I watch these vids and gimme energy.SHOUTOUT GEORGE!!🥰💯‼️
Ollie is really hard man! I can’t seem to jump my board. Every time I do so it’s just a few inch for like a second. Doing tricks is never easy especially for a newbie. But it won’t stop me from learning and trying despite being scared.
This is one of the channels that inspired me to pick up skateboarding again at age 27 (and document it so i can look back at my progress), I never managed an Ollie on the move as a kid but today managed to not only Ollie on the move, but also higher than I could do stationary thanks to this "hack". Great teaching!
I just landed my first ollie the day before this video and I wanted to learn these tricks but no vids helped. So thx for the video and it's perfect timing. Any tips for a beginner skateboarder drop them down below pls ty.
Mate! I'm a 38 years old-timer and getting back into skating now that my kids are keen too. Thanks so much for the amazing and engaging posts: I've learned more in 2 weeks of iso down in the basement than ever have done before! Keep the great material coming 👍
I’ve watched your channel here and there but not all that much. That changes today because I landed my first kick flip today because of this. You’re a legend!
For everyone asking: Im really close (can get it to shov, and my front foot on but not my back) but i've been slacking on that and working on slappys mostly
@@dilandduck7538 if you struggling with getting it underneath of you or trying to commit, it seems for me that if I stand with my back straight and completely over the board it will make it easier to commit or get it in front of you
DUDE I’ve had the exact same thing with my kickflips. I’ve had the flick down for three months and could land with one foot. I’m gonna try to catch it on the bottom now thank you so much!
I'm glad you mentioned the seesaw method. I didn't know what to call it but when I learned that little trick my ollies got higher! Another little trick that helped me was making sure that my back foot is just as high as my front flip when I jump. This help the board get even higher when you level out and prevents you from stunting the height of your ollie. I have my shove it and ollies down next step is the kickflip. Thank you for this vid!
Wow I’ve been struggling to get my back wheels off the ground in ollies and the seesaw method really made sense in my head!! I will definitely try it out
When I learn the shuv it I was scared about put my to feet on the board. So i take the weels and true trucks off and I try to shuv with the deck only and I catch it in only few tries
This was back in April, I watched this vid because I was really struggling with ollies and I wasn’t progressing. I saw this vid and watched the whole thing. Your tips on ollies helped me so much. As soon as I watched the video I went outside and applied your tip to the Ollie. I got so much air it was the best feeling. Unfortunately I have stopped skating for many months. I should have kept on going because that was a huge milestone for me. I’m going to have to rewatch this video. Thank you so much!
Full disclosure I can’t Ollie yet without holding on to support but what clicked for me was understanding the pop. I’m old and returning to skating and I remember using finger boards (back when they were sold as key chains and you took the ring off). I could Ollie those by pulling back slightly as I popped with my fingers rather than just lifting up or pushing my hand forward in the direction of travel. So I started visualizing pushing down and popping with a motion that pushed the board backwards. That, in combination with practicing the front foot slide to raise,level, and guide the deck, seemed to unlock it for me. I can now pop a nice looking Ollie...on the carpet in my basement holding on to the side of the couch lol. But I’m gonna call that progress for 40 years old.
i’ve been working on my ollies recently, and i have been skating now for 5 years now. it got to a point where i just stopped doing them, now occasionally i fuck up on a flat ground ollie or almost land primo. it’s not like i’m a beginner or anything but it just shows how important the ollie is
Landed my first shove it 1 hour after watching this. The one tip where I look at the spot where I want my board to go was very helpful and it helped me to commit to the landing. Thank you George!
“That is because of some very simple rules of physics I don’t know what they’re called maybe like anersia or something friction? Idk” 😂😂🤣this was so funny to me idek why
On this day (June 21, 7:00 pm) I landed my first kickflip! Thank you so much for helping me with all my tricks, encouraging me to skate, and for making skateboarding fun! 🖤🖤🖤
I wouldn’t recommend going straight into kickflips, learn the other basic tricks like fs and bs 180, shuvit and front shuvit, and then you can go into it, trust me it will help so much on the long run
I’ve been skating for just over a year. I’ve been able to do ollies but shuvits and kickflips always felt just out of my grasp. After watching this I landed my first shuvit ever. I hope to do kickflips in the future but I just wanted to say a huge thank you for getting me over this huge hurdle
Not while still, but while rolling you want to jump forward, it’ll help get your back wheels a lot higher. I would recommend learning ollies while rolling
2:38 It's Newton's third law of motion, the principle of action-reaction : For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. It's how rockets work btw. Grasping physics that is involved in skateboarding really helped me making tricks more intuitive
Great video George!!! Just wanna add for me, personally I've been skating for about a year now and what helped me with getting that 'click' with the ollie was my posture on the board. Ive always thought I had the pop down and the whole dragging your front foot but could never actually get the board leveled. Once I started adjusting my posture to be directly over the board (possibly even leaning slightly over) it instantly clicked and the rhythm has stuck ever since :D. Just thought I'd leave this here for anyone struggling as well!
Hey George I' m 32 and have been skateboarding on and off for many many years. I don't even remember my first kickflip cuz it's been almost 20 years ago but I never landed a switch one and I just became a father so I decided I'm gonna land one asap. I've been training my switch kickflip for a while now and can land with 1 foot only. I'm gonna give your tip a go and hopefully I will get the sw flip after many years of skateboarding! Cheers
Lets just take a moment to thank george for not making a video just to get that 10 minute adrevenue he could have easily made this 10:02 like every other youtuber
Just like you explained at the kickflip section, I found it hard to land on the board with both feet in shove-it. It took my months of practise, stopping practising shove-its and getting back at them, but now I have learnt it :) Fakie is easier for me as well, and I have to improve the form, but I am extremely happy about shove-its! I will apply your tip in the 'forward' shove-it, thanks a lot George! :)
I'm 43 years old and have just started skating again, after having quit twenty years ago. I could do all these tricks back when, but am struggling to get a feel for them again and I'm excited to apply these tips when the near-crippling soreness is gone from my legs.
When I try to kickflip I can do it with putting one foot at the ground but when I try to land of with two feet I can't rotate the board properly, why is this?
Fuckkkk same fucking same except the last part I can rotate 100% it’s the landing on both feet, but it’s cuz I’m not committing and scared since I sprained my back foot twice doing a kickflip......
I think it helps me when I look at a certain spot on my board for tricks. So if I keep missing with both feet then I'll look the opposite direction of where I miss and it helps my brain tell my body to jump the right direction instead.
What also helps for me is trying these tricks on a trampoline because you're not afraid to fall and you commit completely Anyway that's how I learned how to commit and land kickflip.
Loving your content George. Got my first board a couple weeks ago and have been loving every second I've gotten to use it. You are a huge reason why I decided to even give it a shot! Thank you for inspiring me and giving us newbies some tips. Gotta try them out now!
Dude thaaaaanks. Honestly you are the best for figuering these out and presenting them. This is exactly what i needed. I can ollie kinda well right now but I actually ended up learning how to ollie exactly the way you told it and it helped me alot. Im forsure sending this to a couple of friends that need these tips!!!
man i wish i heard this shuv tip before, i alwyas jumped in front of me anticipating the board was going to be there but always landed on the nose. just yesterday i found out you have to jump a lil to the side by myself and now it’s so much easier
For shovets what’s helped me a lot is jumping high so u have more time to watch the board coming up behind ur feet then once u land it a few times it will become easy, this is just what worked for me so I hope I can help one of u 👍
Damn, never heard that kickflip tip before. But that might just be what i need to do. I got the flip down but i have the same problem as you had with landing on one foot. Been stuck on that for so long now. I will def try this method, thx!
that kickflip tip is useful. i’m 24 and just starting to get sort of consistent at them. my tip would be to jump straight up, and “break your front ankle”. as in really focus on using your shin to drag your limp foot across the board. for me, if i try to flick using every part of my foot, my board goes way out in front of me or gets pulled up too high.
I don't know why people dislike. Because he is just helping every one. And if you dislike this video. You think learning this is bad. By the way love your channel super good advice.
Yo that kickflip tip is unreal. You actually got me to land my first kickflip. I now use that tip to land much harder tricks too. Everytime i cant commit to a trick i just imagine it landing upside down, but do the same thing. Thats how i learned heelflips, kickflips, varial flips, and even fakie 3 shuvs though the board doesnt flip. Thanks bro
no way! ive watched since 3k and then my old channel got deleted and i lost all my subscriptions. i saw your tiktok on my for you page and checked out your channel. crazy to see you’re 1/5 of the way to a million

I think it helps me when I look at a certain spot on my board for tricks. So if I keep missing with both feet then I'll look the opposite direction of where I miss and it helps my brain tell my body to jump the right direction instead.
Same here ...if I look in front of my board t the ground I land things way better
What also helps for me is trying these tricks on a trampoline because you're not afraid to fall and you commit completely
Anyway that's how I learned how to commit and land kickflip.
When i think about bringing my front foot back i can never flick enough any tips anyone?
man I’m suffering from this rn did ya get an answer yet?😂
Keep inspiring us george with your skating! Please
I don't know why I'm watching this I've had these tricks on lock for 8 years.
How do u land ur kickflips better?
love your vids george
Loving your content George. Got my first board a couple weeks ago and have been loving every second I've gotten to use it. You are a huge reason why I decided to even give it a shot! Thank you for inspiring me and giving us newbies some tips. Gotta try them out now!
Bro when you gave the Ollie tip I actually felt like I could Ollie and it really helps.
Dude thaaaaanks. Honestly you are the best for figuering these out and presenting them. This is exactly what i needed. I can ollie kinda well right now but I actually ended up learning how to ollie exactly the way you told it and it helped me alot. Im forsure sending this to a couple of friends that need these tips!!!
Dude, that kickflip thing is the best. I haven’t landed a full kickflip yet, but I’m finally bringing my feet together after the flick. Thanks, man!
Sounds professional, ima try it tmw, hope it works
man i wish i heard this shuv tip before, i alwyas jumped in front of me anticipating the board was going to be there but always landed on the nose. just yesterday i found out you have to jump a lil to the side by myself and now it’s so much easier
For shovets what’s helped me a lot is jumping high so u have more time to watch the board coming up behind ur feet then once u land it a few times it will become easy, this is just what worked for me so I hope I can help one of u 👍
These hacks are so helpful! Thanks so much George! I love your channel!
Your videos helps me so much. I’ve watched your videos for a long time now and i do my tricks much better
Damn, never heard that kickflip tip before. But that might just be what i need to do. I got the flip down but i have the same problem as you had with landing on one foot. Been stuck on that for so long now. I will def try this method, thx!
Your tip for landing kickflips seriously helped me finally get them down, thank you!
that kickflip tip is useful. i’m 24 and just starting to get sort of consistent at them. my tip would be to jump straight up, and “break your front ankle”. as in really focus on using your shin to drag your limp foot across the board. for me, if i try to flick using every part of my foot, my board goes way out in front of me or gets pulled up too high.
I don't know why people dislike. Because he is just helping every one.
And if you dislike this video.
You think learning this is bad.
By the way love your channel super good advice.
Thank you soo much for the help definitely needed it
Hey George! I just want to say thank you so much for this video! I am finally getting high Ollies, better shuvits, and kickflip!
Omg thank u so much for the "seesaw method" it was so simple and clear but I was finally able to land my ollie's
Yo that kickflip tip is unreal. You actually got me to land my first kickflip. I now use that tip to land much harder tricks too. Everytime i cant commit to a trick i just imagine it landing upside down, but do the same thing. Thats how i learned heelflips, kickflips, varial flips, and even fakie 3 shuvs though the board doesnt flip. Thanks bro
Thanks so much👍 I went outside and learnt shove it in 11 attempts and I've only been riding for 5 weeks
no way! ive watched since 3k and then my old channel got deleted and i lost all my subscriptions. i saw your tiktok on my for you page and checked out your channel. crazy to see you’re 1/5 of the way to a million
This really works, thanks for the tip👍
