With the lakais nice
Your doing great I wish my Ollies looked as good as yours!
Thanks, I've been watching different tutorials and taking from each what I can.
They are not as straight as I would like and I'm still messing around with my front foot position, but we'll get there.
@@ChongcoSk88 oh easy you are doing great far past my progress I struggle with the moving Ollie!
Ain't gonna lie I gotta good laugh outta this...but only because I just started back skating at age 47 and we look just the same on the board lol...my reflexes are slow I'm so stiff and dangit I don't remember the concrete being so freakin hard! But I'm so glad I got back to skating. Much love and respect to you homie from southwest GA 🤘💪
Yeah, the pads saved from some scrapes and stuff, but theres nothing to protect my joints. So glad I got back too. Been great mentally and aside frome injury, its been healthy for me too.
Have fun, stay safe
yheaaa bro! just remember a thing! you must focus on movments going up! you dont need to press down the tail ! you just need to put the foot on the tail! if your front leg go up the tail automatically snap on the ground whitout need to press down! if you do that you start to feel more ligth ! try to focus on front leg going up and catcing the grip ! if you do the mecnism correct the foot on the tail just follow the physics going up after snap the tail.....but snap the the tail is a consequence of your front leg going up youMUST REMEMBER to not pres down the tail .....mind set going up! never down! press down just for pressure flips!
Thanks for the advice. I guess its obvious that Im still working things out in my head. I'll keep that in mind my next few sessions. Ollies look simple until you break them down, then theres a lot of techniques like that you need to put together in the right time.
This is great advice that I will be using as well, I cant get consistent good pop's and I think this might be the issue.
see this all the time. experienced it myself. even if you have to break the moving ollie up into parts and then combine the steps all together later so be it. the focus right off the bat should be to get that nice solid tail pop. even if you have to pop the tail only and let the board fly ahead of you go for it. when you focus to much on the jumping, sliding your foot up too early or whatever it just doesnt work. get that solid tail pop down first every time and then you can add the rest with it.
Thanks for the advice.
Yeah I'm still struggling with ollies.
Ghost pop, not consistant...
I definately feel I'm not popping enough so I'll keep this in mind.
@@ChongcoSk88 no prob man. you out there trying. thats all good.
how's your knees?
They're fine. I rolled most of those falls out and the pads helped. Just from the ollies/attemps? They feel great today. But yeah, they aint what they used to be.
Glucosamine, stretching and assisted squats is how I've been trying to manage them.
@@ChongcoSk88 that's good to hear,man. You rock
