How to ollie (fix common problems)

So to learn how to Ollie you must be comfortable on your skateboard, when you start learning to Ollie you maybe wondering 'where do I start ' well what your going to do is put your back foot in the corner of the board with your toes on the tail witch will help you pop the Ollie and you front foot in the middle of the skateboard.
The first step is to quickly lift up you're front wheels of the ground and put them back down as fast as you can make sure you lift your front wheels higher and higher until you hear your tail make a snap noise. Good so now you have the pop down now to the second step. The second step is to stand on the tail so the tail is on the ground and for your front foot to slide all the way up to the nose but make sure your sliding straight up and not to the side.
After you have both of those steps down now your going to want to crouch down pop your tail straight down as your jumping up and as your coming up slide your foot up as far as it goes, Also when your foot does the slide motion it should look like your twisting your ankle but you won't don't freak out. And that was the Ollie, easier said than done there are problems you can run into on this trick the first one is sliding late and rocketing your Ollie, when you rocket an Ollie it goes up diagnelly and it doesn't level out, why because you might be poping to hard and not sliding your foot enough of you might be sliding your foot late or you might be leaning back hesitating the way to fix those problems is don't pop so hard and slide your foot more or slide your foot earlier or lean forward don't be scared because if you hesitate your gonna fall just commit or if not learn them on the grass or somewhere there is a soft landing. If you're having any other problems just skate around more and practice more or just leave your problem in the comments.
