Did my first ollies today.
Crashed every once in a while. The last crash made we stop. I ollied, front of board went under, and my front foot came off. Soon after my board came up and nailed me in the head, thank god I was wearing a helmet. Otherwise that could have been harmful.
Anybody got any tips on getting higher ollies, mine was about half a foot. |

| wakeboarderdave4, good job on the ollie. It sounds like you have it down, just make sure you keep your boards tip from going into the water. Just keep practicing and basically you will get higher ollies. |

| I get more height and find it easier if i cut out on my heels first then flatten off, put a bit of pressure on the front foot, then bring to the back and pop. |
