How do it
Any serious skater will tell you that the ollie is the most fundamental trick in skateboarding. Typically, it's the first trick people learn when they're just starting out.
1.
Place your rear leg on the tail. Place your front leg roughly in the middle of the board, or slightly closer to the bolts.
2.
Start bending your knees and crouching. At the same time snap the tail with your back leg and slightly hold back and lead out the nose with your front leg.
3.
Push your knees to your chest and land. Try to land with both feet simultaneously and as close to the trucks as possible.
