For an ollie crotch down and put your foot as far up the kick as it will go put your front foot abt mid deck half way across the board Then press down with your back foot so your kick touches the ground slide your front foot forward and your board will level out. Keep going at it, it wont happen straight away, you could also get your cousin to teach you how as well.
Manuals just roll along and lean back put your hands in the air 2 keep you balance or out to the sides one of the two and that should b it. _________________

pugsly thinks that as long as you keep trying u can improve. pugsly has a friend that has been skating for about 5 years and cant even go down a 2 foot roll over. just dont bee scared. the pug has already broke his ankel and his wrist
and the pug is still learning knew things

Jester thinks it's dorky for Pugsley or anybody else for that matter to refer to themselves in the third person. |
