Skateboarding/ollie higher

Question
How do you ollie higher?

Answer
Pop lots of ollies, that's how. The more you do, the higher you'll get. Just suck your legs, mainly your back one, up to your chest and slide your foot up longer to get that height. Try ollieing over differnet objects, increasing in height when you're ready. If you're a puss like I used to be with ollies, what I would do is put something very soft that can't hurt you if you hit it, at the edge of the road and ollie over it into the grass. That helps get your confidence up. Good luck!

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.
