ive been skating for like three years and im pretty good the only two problems I seems to have is
1.getting air outta a half pipe.
2. the second one is getting a higher ollie.
I cant seem to ollie a trash can on its side and it pisses me off cause other than that im pretty good.
so if anybody has any advice let me know would ya.

Try putting your front foot a bit closer to the middle of the board, thats what I do when I just ollie over stuff and I've popped over 6 stacked decks.

try to practice your jumping without a skate
and then when you can jump very high from the ground without a skate
just then get on and try to improve your ollie
I hope that helped you

Suck your knees nigga. Keep your feet where they are comfy and just tweek it up. Keep it rising, normally your back leg that'll be the problem with this.

I dont understand really? Maby its just me but the first year of skating I learned how to Air outta pipes, or do you mean like Air out Air in?

bring your knees as close as possible to your chest and jump as hi as you can at the sametime..also..plant your foot closer to the nose.

uhh.. no, dont put your foot close to the nose if you wanna go high. For high ollies I put it more to the middle so I can suck my board up higher. Im not saying my ollie is uber high but I can do trash cans yes

I think that now, he is supposed to be in measurement of ollie higher

play lots of Tony Hawks Pro Skater...it will make you 1337
haha nah just like they said put your front foot back a lil bit, get a good snap off the tail, when you slide your front foot forward suck your knee up twords your chest and bring that back foot up high as you can with the board. just keep the board level, because no matter how high your ollie is, if you can keep em level and do em clean, they will look better than a Huge mobbed out ollie

how do you air above the copeing because I dont want to do none of that early grab shite.

That's pretty hard mate, if you can't ollie over a dustbin I don't know weather you'd be able too... I guess try on smaller quarters first and keep your weight backwards like you would coming back from a blunt.

Learn to do little nollie bumps off cracks in the pavement that stick up a bit, then do that out of the QP. I can't really be bothered with details, but that works for me.
