Ok Ive read all the other threads about ollies... kick up the tail, slide front foot forward, suck both kness to chest. I can ollie like 2 inches doing this. Any advice on foot placement etc.?

The key to hitting skate tricks is practice. I know everybody sez it but it's the only true advice. The way I do kickflips may not work for you, you just gotta figure out how you're gonna do it.

Specifically with regards to your problem, remember to bring up your back foot. I think that's the most common problem with people who have low ollies.

I'm gonna teach people how to ollie using space age NASA technology. Very top secret... Or I'll clone Reese Forbes...

Like jester said just practice. At first my ollies sucked then eventually they got higher to what ever they are now. But your only gonna ollie as high as your gonna jump-you jump 2 inches thats about as high as its gonna be, your jump a foot thats how high (providing you do it right) its gonna be.
