I can't ollie. I have been skating >10 years, and my ollie is shyte. My back foot is coming off the board, my landings are sloppy. Popping of kickers feels awkward, I can't get air on pyramids. It is starting to bother me recently, because for the most part I have skated only flat ground and ledges, and somehow my ollie capabilities were fine for that. I could easily clear knee high obstacles and flat gaps. I have not tried anything more than 6 stairs tho.
Now I have moved locations, the skate infrastructure has improved, and along my skate habits changed. Starting skating more switch, my switch ollies start feel more natural. I haven't skated streets much, and now what pisses me off, even popping on smallest curbs approaching diagonally can be toughest challenge, because the regular ollie is so awkward.
So far what I have identified is my front foot is all over the place on the board. Not really pushing the board forward with the side of foot, but staying flat. I guess I have identified the weak spot. Trying to work on it, but only every few ollie attempts are successful. Mostly I result just losing the board or flying off.
I feel I would give up my tricks to just have a stable ollie and be able to snap off obstacles and just ride around.
Wanted to share this with SLAP. Any tips or condolence is appreciated.
