Yeah do it over a bouy that sounds real smart, especially when you cant ollie yet. And silver, whats the point of says "yeah what he said"

If they should ollie over a buoy why not make it a log or something. Ryguy plz disregard that. Be careful when looking for motivation that could cause injury. I usually push down with the back then bring the front of the board up with the front foot. It's easier for me HS in the flats after picking up a little speed.

yup just push down on the water and spring up and a little back foot to front foot motion.

me three

His next out-in-the-flats stunt was a roll2revert off the oncoming wake of an i/o boat. The look on their faces was f-ing hilarous.

Yeah well its not the thing you see very day some one back rolling off your wake, i bet it was pretty bomb to watch.

Ski courses make a great path to practice ollies, just don't piss off anyone with grey hair in a closed bow mastercraft, hear me there. I don't remember having any difficulty learning to ollie a wakeboard but thats what we do w/ newbies on our wakeskates.

I've ollied those big things of cubungi along the river there over a foot.
