About Max
Expertise
I have been skateboarding for around 7 years; I have extensive knowledge on street skating, including all sorts of flip tricks, tips on popping higher ollies, grinds, slides, rails, ledges, and park skating including transitions.

Experience
Before you email me asking "how do i kickflip??" you should practice it, what can I do, magically make you learn it? All I can do is give helpful tips, so try to ask serious questions, please. Also, I can and will not sponsor you, so don't bother asking.

Answer
It's natural for you to not be able to pop high ollies only three weeks in. Don't get discouraged, you seem to be progressing very nicely. There's nothing I can really tell you except try sucking your back leg up higher and jumping higher, and slide your foot up more slowly, kinda drag the motion out to allow you more time to get height. Know what I mean? Just practice, it'll come, I promise. Good luck.
