I'm 30 years old now. First time on my skateboard in over a month since hurting my back. Trying to take things slow so these ollies are really bad. Still feels good to get back on the skateboard. Hopefully I can quickly retrain myself to get my balance back and improve.

  • hey scott glad to see your back on your board. for being off for a month and your back still kinda hurting your doing well. bring your back foot off the tail some your hanging off, then jump as you pop. other than that just keep practising

  • Always appreciate the advice bro. How's your skatin going?

  • Hey scott,

    I know personally skating is a bad thing for your back. I'm always hurt after 15 minutes trying and the dog walk and turning. Just keep it up.

  • Just keep skating in time you'll get a whole lot better trust mee

  • pop harder, and dont slam your front foot down so fast. act like you're trying to jump and land with knees bent. it'll make your ollie float. keep practicing. you got it.

  • locate balance point (round back trucks)

    crouch

    pop (jump forward)

    that's it really

  • jump forward!

  • jump higher

  • you start sliding your front foot up too early

  • i is

  • its going ok i havent been skating for like 2 weeks i dont know why i havent been, i think i just need to let my legs recooperate for a little. i might go out tomorrow and skate around

  • tips:

    try putting your front foot over the front bolts

    you can only ollie as high as your lowest foot

    front foot slides up and forward
