Question
ok..i've only ben skatin for 6 months..but i can ollie real high..kinda. when i go to land it my back foot swings out and my body turns like if i was goin to walk...my question is how can i stop that from happining.
You're most likely not landing it because you're chickening out when it comes to actually landing back on the cement. Practice ollies in the grass and practice landing on your board and staying put. Then take it back to the street. That's all I can think to say, 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.
