Learning to Ollie (30) Part 34

[darrin603]

holy shit... you suck NUTS!!!

[superskaternigga]

Haha why are you making how to videos? lmfao

[SuperTwiggers]

It took me a while to learn how to ollie and after learning how to abstablish my stance it was easy

[sk8rgamr1]

Dud ur doin amazin in progress they improved alot!!!

[BrawlDOJO999]

dude, it wil help alot, move your back foot a bit away from the very tail i know ive said it before but the board shoots high thats why your back foot is coming off, trust me thats how i learned

[JamesSkates09]

there getting way better try them with wheels cause if u dont use wheels they dont catch if u do it without wheels to much

[Enjoiskateboarding01]

nice man

You're ollies have improved ten-fold

Keep up the good work mate

[jiaxing265]

man. freaking sick. Great to see u back in action

[sk8sheff]

the best way to get the the ollie technique down is trying not to like ollie realli high if u try to do a like medium ollie and get the technique down like doing realli high ollies should get easier

[garth1984]

Scott it looks like its coming along nicely. Im learning alongside you and aiden and seem to be improving more after watching each vid. Im mixing up the ollie practice alongside standard riding around so as to not get frustrated. Been practicing the ollies stationary on grass. Not sure if id be better practicing the ollies on concrete whats the general verdict?

[scottdouglas79]

Well I've practiced on grass but its almost impossible to get a good POP on grass. I would say the concrete is better. If your worried aout rolling around or falling out I would recommend trying thhe method like I did in this video on some old trucks if u have them with no wheels or you can attach blocks of wood the same height as trucks or you can try putting a thin board under the tail on the carpet so it will have something to pop with. But yeah..grass is tough to get height on

[sk8sheff]

when u get your ollies better your feet should never leave the board

[scottdouglas79]

Yeah I know the illusion of the ollie is that your feet don't leave the board but even alot of pro skaters have the back foot leave the tail for a second when they pop the tail. I've watched 100's of ollie videos and most of the time the back foot leaves the board for a little bit. BUT your right that if u slide your foot right (timing) The tail will comeup and stick to the back foot as its leveled out. Thanks bro!

[aiden5793]

not really, i went out the other day when it stopped raining but im gunna keep practasing inside so i dont start losing hieght

[Comonguysdontbemad]

Bending your knees not behind your knees.. Fuck I hate mornings.

[Comonguysdontbemad]

Scott use your wheels. lol.

The reaosn your getting air is because your behind your knees and lifting your feet higher.. You can do it with wheels ez to.

And when your moving and ollieing you need to jump forward lol not so much stationary but then again I never skate stationary.. cause you learn the trick then have to re larn it moving.

Scott i think you should add the wheels on and try ollieing onto a curb.. You can get that hieght just dont give up. and put it on youtube :D

[scottdouglas79]

I think I will try this on a curb with wheels next time. (With wheels of course lol)

[93doomy]

Kinda hard without em. haha

[iFoundedChina]

It's just a factor of being scared or not

[Comonguysdontbemad]

That is true you have to not worry.

Skate or die means skate or die trying lol

[93doomy]

Those ollies are similar to mine, although i have my front foot further back so that the ollie goes a little bit higher.

But man, that's some fucking awsome progression i see. Good job, by the way subsribe to my channel.

[1080portal]

try to

tilt weight back to tail, then quickly pop and jump forward

[scottdouglas79]

Jumping forward does help alot but I forget to do that alot still.

[1080portal]

holy shit i think his gettin it!!!

[moncop12]

yep taking the wheels off and pratacing tricks helps alot i learned how to stay over and keep my board undercontroll when i do a kickflip

[scottdouglas79]

I want to learn kickflips but I'm gonna wait till I can get these about 18 inches high leveled out.

[aiden5793]

wow!, that was a such a sudden improvement, you got some really high ollies there,

cant wait to see to attempt rolling Ollies again, i bet you'll master them, in no time.

[SkateLiam]

wow your ollies are really getting better and better! keep going and you'll have them down no problem

[671rAsTaGuAmBoI4LyPh]

everything's coming together! the knees seems to be the biggest thing..

not make that front foot bring the board up AND forward

[skateESC]

Ive noticed,,you have this thing you do when you're about to do a trick,,lol you twirl your finger like in an orchestra or somethin. nice ollies tho man.

[77xet]

to level out better slide your front foot a little bit farther outward and it will catch the nose and level out. Trust me, that will help alot.

[skateDT]

Damnn those were some clean ollies, nice progress man.

[GradyRho92]

your sliding your front foot to early try sliding it just a little later

[scottdouglas79]

Thanks I'll work on that, yeah i don't want to lose any of the "pull up" created by sliding to early. I'd really like to get them even higher.

[rockhard33]

hey just so u know, u can practice stationary ollies withou tmovement by putting ur back wheels in a crack, like a sidewalk crack..

[scottdouglas79]

Oh yeah I know Ive done that too, thanks

[breadpops]

oh goodd shit and no he is not ready for kickflips untilhe can at least ollie over another skateboard while rolling

[paulinbin360]

HOLY SHIT! 5 stars. in about 2 weeks you'll be ready for kickflips

[scottdouglas79]

I havn't really tried those much. I tried one hanging on to a fence but the board didn't do anything but shoot out somewhere lol

[CenaMysterio235]

hey when you took off the weels does it help i got an old crappy skateboard too...and i dont care bout it

[paulinbin360]

yeah but let me tell u something...i land my switch flips better than my switch ollies

[L0stmusic]

k thanks man,I have been watching your "Learning how to Ollie" videos and you have inproved alot (AWESOME SKater)

[scottdouglas79]

Thanks man!

[EnjoiLife222]

okay sorry didnt know keep skating man your improving alot those are getting pretty high whatever you wanna do to practice

[scottdouglas79]

Hey man, I'm sorry I removed your other comment, I was trying to reply and I hit remove. I normally don't censor comments, I always appreciate your advice!

[L0stmusic]

Dude your awesome man When I practice My back foot moves somewhere else why

REply back please, thankyou

[scottdouglas79]

Well I'm not sure where your backfoot is going. U should try and pull it up into your chest area. This is what I am just now learning to do. I have been practicing ollies so long and only recently discovered that your backfoot can really damper your ollie heights by getting in the way of the tail coming up. Hope this helps!
