more speed and keep the wheels up just a tad longer before throwing your weight on top the faster you go the easier it is killing the ollie though man

I see you’re really good at pumping the banks to get speed for it, but when you go up the launch ramp you do the opposite and it eats your speed Try going slower at it and pump as much speed as you can from the launch ramp, Your ollies looked nice you did it perfect on some of those! That’s just how I bonk them at least hope it makes sense I feel like I sometimes give it a teeny nudge if the coping sticks out a lot, kinda similar to the hop/scoot you gotta do when going off a curb with no speed

hey you're out there trying and there's actually some good tips in the comments. I'd say this was a success

You can get a better bonk kicking your front leg out earlier. Your head/back shoulder should be over the back truck when you're bonking. This helped me with flyouts and disasters.

do you know the bonk on curbs? you ride at them with speed and lift the front wheels, but instead of popping with the tail, you simply hop and lift your back foot so the tail is weightless and your back wheels bonk off the curb and come on top. I assume that it's the same on coping, and you simply need more speed.

A bonk is a tricky one explain. For me, it is like a slightly delayed ollie where you let the back wheels clip the coping instead of popping. Your legs should still make the ollie motion and the bonk helps to get the tail up. I feel like I wait for the back wheels to bonk before I level off with the front foot. You might say it is a lazy ollie. Possibly, the opposite is a scoop, where front foot levels the board before you pop. Your ollies looked really tasty though, so keep cracking that tail! Always feels a sounds more proper!

Where is that park???

Its buttery dude! Gimmy 2 FER I NEED 2 FER.

New mic sounds really good. 👊👍

congrats from the Oregon high desert!

It fucking counts!

Yes dude! Awesome. 👊😎

Heelflips are awesome. You are awesome

Excellent video! This just goes to show that With practice you can do anything. Great video keep up the good skateboarding

I'm a 40 year old skater from Waco, TX. I enjoyed hearing a southern accent in a skate tutorial. Nice change of pace, for real!

Nah definitely too sketch

Dude...act your age...pathetic.

You married a skateboarder in you now you have to live with it

What does wheels clear mean?

I do the same! ❤

Cruizin’ an scopin’

that 180 looked nice dude

OHH really well explained this makes a lot of sense now! Gonna try this out, as soon as my fracture heals 😅

Just watched the outtake, funny asl 🤣🤣

Thanks man this is great help, keep posting these videos appreciate it!

Looking forward to my own 6ft drop. 2ft seems scary to me. Amazing drop!

Thanks that really helped. Ha ha, you funny. Greets from Germany :)

That is a nice rail. Fun stuff 👊👍

wow very good boardslide 👌

Well. Time to get my old ass back on the deck I think.

This is a very good and on point video, but the very best part is right at the end. Those outtakes cracked me up sooo hard, I couldn't stop laughing, brilliant ending! 😆😂🤣👏👏

clearest explaination

This is great advice. When I first started learning to ollie I was getting a lot of hip pain because I was keeping my leg straight and trying to pop really hard. Seeing this earlier would have saved me skme grief.

Yes!! Congrats on defeating the fear. That’s a huge accomplishment.

hearing u explain the transfer of kinetic energy instead of brute force did wonders

Sick perseverance pays off

When you put your mind to something, you can definitely do a great job.Excellent film it's an inspiration to skaters that are trying new things to go ahead and Take the time to conquer a trick that has been giving them trouble. Please continue to publish these films so that we may enjoy them for the rest of our lives

wax bro

Hell yeah, fought for that one. Wtg

Without Bondo? Rock on.

🔥🔥🔥

Awesome!

F#ckin' warrior!!! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

Love skate content from average everyday skaters!! Keep it up!

Yes.. Str8 Facts.. You have to learn how to Pop your board at a point in your jump when most of your weight is off the board. Also.. don't make the board " jump" bring it with your jump.. I know it sounds crazy.. but an older homie told me that.. once I understood it.. it helped. Basically bring the board up with you by popping and sliding your foot. Don't depend on your Pop to make the jump. LoL.. I just can't explain it.. but trust me.. it works.💯

Have you thought about using some Bondo?

Dude! You got this!!! Regarding the hole, does it help to turn the table around?

New sub! Where were you 30 years ago??? I stomped my board and never could ollie!!! And now that I can't even ride, it makes so much sense 🤦‍♂️

thank you bro i finally realised my problem thanks to you, it would be cool if we could see more basics tutorials like shuvits and fs 180s 👍 love the video btw

Makes total sense. Glad I found this as I'm a newbie skater trying to learn the tricks of the trade and I think this will help a lot. Thanks.
