1) Roll fast enough that you feel like you're rolling
smoothly and comfortably across the ground.
•
2) Set up with your back foot on the tip of the
tail and your front foot just behind the front truck
bolts with your toes hanging off the edge of the
board. Keep your body straight-- your head should
be directly above the center point between your
feet.
•
3) Bend down keeping your head above your board.
(Don't lean forward, just squat.)
•
4) Pop your ollie and jump with it but don't throw
your shoulders back as you go up. Right after your
tail taps the ground, kick your front foot forward
with the heel in a kind of diagonal direction. Kick
it out in front of you but also kick it a little
toward the direction in which you are rolling. This
helps to give you a flip that you can see and catch
easier.
•
5) Don't lean back! Don't try to bail! Catch the
board, push it down and land. Roll away happy.
