    Glad you're finally making new videos again! I needed this video like 3 months ago when I was stuck learning ollies because my shoulders weren't square haha. I don't have any in-person skater friends so it took a lot of back-and-forth chat with another skater on Discord to figure out what the problem was. Not enough tutorials talk about keeping the shoulders parallel to the board!

    Thank you! This video is just what I needed. Been stuck at very low ollies for a couple of months, and this simple trick to bend down more seems to help!

    Not enough speed!! This is so important. Something that helped me immeasurably is filming myself- for myself, not like cinematically- and watching it back to see if I'm making basic mistakes. Instantly can see things to improve.

    Great video for beginners, I’m pretty experienced but I’ve got a few friends who are interested in skating after watching me do boardslides and kickflips and stuff, I’m nowhere near as good a teacher as you so I’ll definitely recommend this video to them and as a long time viewer your channel as well!

    Thank you so much for the videos man. I'm 31 years old and going to pick up a board for the first time in 16 years. I wasn't really good because I didn't believe in myself and the "crew" I hung out with, were quick to laugh at me and judge me instead of helping me. Your videos are definitely giving me the self-confidence I need to improve myself. Thank you 🙌🙌🛹🛹

    What helped me not do that is to not put alot of weight on your foot that is pushing. Think about it as skimming your foot along the ground, but make sure that's on the ground
