Help with skateboarding!?

Question

Im trying to learn how to jump on a skateboard and i cant! please help me!!

Answer 1

i think you mean ollie.

What you need to do, is crowch down like your about to jump, but on your way up from the jump, you stomp your back foot down and pop the tail. After that you wanna drag your front foot and tuck your legs. Once you straighten the board out in the air, extend your legs and touch the ground.

Heres a link where reese forbes teaches you how to do it. He can do it really high, but dont be intimidated, any size ollie is still an ollie

Answer 2

What dya mean? Jump on the sateboard while its moving or when your on in motionless and want it to do a flip? Or that its just there motionless and you jump on it? To jump on the skateboard while it's moving... well let's just say it might be dangerous So you might have to do it with a pro to tell you exactly. If you want your skateboard to do a flip... Well my friend can do that and he like stands at the ends and jumps but just before he does he like somehow twists the skateboard with his back leg How to jump on the skateboard can actually also be dangerous... Another one of my friends tried it out thinking that it was easy but found out the hard way it ain't ;) Just remember that you need some supervision Owell sorry that I couldn't be of that much help but remember: These things need time, you can't just learn them over night. Ok well have fun 'boarding, I know I will :P

It's actually pretty easy. Put the skateboard on the ground and then put your left foot on it...then your right and you are done...problem solved
