Make sure to push your front foot off the board all the way; simialar to a bronco, but between the nose and the side of the board. this will also get your kflips higher

Dude if your a regular sk8r, take your right hand, grab the middle of the board, quickly take your left foot off the board, place it on the ground, keep your right foot on the board and don't let it go with your hand, pivot a 180 on your left foot, push off the left foot and land fakie.If your goofy, sorry, just do the opposite of what I said. Aloha!

push down on the tail of the skateboard with your backfoot (making the nose come up) while at the same time sliding your front foot from the center of the board towards the nose.  try landing your front foot on top of your hardware. while doing all that you should be going through a jumping motion.\n\nhttp://expn.go.com/tricks/Ollie.html#

STEP 1: Stand on the board with your rear foot placed on the tail and your front foot between the middle of your board and the front bolts.\nSTEP 2: Place the ball of your rear foot in the middle of the board so that when you push the tail down, the ball of your foot feels the pressure.\nSTEP 3: Place your front foot nearly straight across the board.\nSTEP 4: Practice pushing down as fast as you can with your back foot and putting all your weight on the tail. This is the initial motion of the trick.\nSTEP 5: Notice that the harder you push, the more your board wants to keep going up once the tail is on the ground. You will use that motion in the next step.\n\nSTEP 6: Strike the tail on the ground and jump off with your rear foot as you slide your front foot up the board (so your knee moves toward your chest).\n\nSTEP 7: Drag the side of your foot up the board as you are jumping. This will cause the board to come up with your jump. Once both feet are in the air, the board will seem to stick to them.\nSTEP 8: Come back down.\nTips & Warnings\n\nLearn this trick without rolling at first to get comfortable with the motions. Once you feel comfortable with the basics, you will be able to adapt to moving and going up or down things.\nThe hardest part is the timing of when to push down on the tail, when to jump, and how quickly to suck up your legs. The secret: It's all done at the same time. The faster you do it, the easier it becomes. Think about jumping off with one foot and sucking your legs up to your chest.\nSkateboarding is an inherently dangerous activity that can result in serious injury or death. We recommend that you seek proper training and equipment before attempting this activity.

Just try to jump simultaneously while you flip the board, and try to make the board flip right below you, and try to jump right over it, like pull your feet right back over the board. You can improve that with the practice. Also, by the way, a tip to do that, I mean, to keep the board right below you and yourself over it, is to lean a bit back to the direction of the tail, and put most  of  your weight there, before you do the flip. Like don't lean too much and lose your balance, it's just that you have to put your weight more over the tail, and try to jump without moving to any side, so as that you won't send the board away from you. It's kind of confusing, I hope this helps anyways. Good luck dude.

STEP 1: Stand directly over the ball. \n\nSTEP 2: Place your left heel on the front of the ball, and keep your foot on the ground.\n\n STEP 3: Position the top of your right foot on the back of the ball so that just your toes are touching the ground. \n\nSTEP 4: Roll the ball 2 to 3 inches up your left heel with your right foot. \n\nSTEP 5: Lean forward so all your weight is on your left foot. \n\nSTEP 6: Flick your left heel up quickly with force as you lean forward. Your momentum and the heel flick sends the ball over the back of your head so that it lands in front of you, hence the "rainbow kick." \n\nSTEP 7: Take a step forward to regain control of the ball. \nI HOPE IT WORKS! GOOD LUCKKK

No, don;t lean foward! That leads to many bad habits trust me. Plus it makes landing other tricks hard. You want to stay as centered over the board as possible. Use your front foot to flatten your ollie after you pop it, not your whloe body.  Also you dont have to pop hard, all you need is to get the motion down. So when your trying to ollie just do this.\n\nMake sure you a centered on your board, not leaning in any crazy positions.\n\nMake sure your shoulders are parallel with your board.\n\nBend your knees with out leaning too much in any dirrection, dont bend too far either just far enough that youre comfortable\n\nget a good, solid pop, , dont pop as hard as you can. you will have less control.\n\nslide your foot and still, dont lean anywhere, just imagine your jumping straight up into the air.\n\nI find it also helps to sort of raise your arms up after you pop, the energy of your arms should help give your ollie morre height and can help you stay balanced in the air.\n\nfocus on landing solid... all 4 wheels hitting the ground at once\n\nbend knees for impact\n\nrepeat untill youve got it down.\n\nRemember you probably wont get it a first, just dont get mad, it will be easier to progress if your enjoying what youre doing. It also helps to break this down into little parts, focusing on one aspect of the trick at a time, and then you put them all together and you have a good ollie. yay

Street trick tips: Beginner\n\n\n\n\nOllie: For a good solid ollie you want to place your back foot on the tail and your front foot right in the middle of the board. Now bend your knees and pop the tail to the ground hard and slide your front foot up to the nose of the board. This should start taking you off the ground so suck your knees up to your chest like your sitting down in mid air. Get ready for the landing by bending down to absorb the shock.\n\n\nManual: For a manual you want to place your front foot on the front bolts and your back foot on the tail of the board. Now shift your weight to your back foot while balancing in the middle of your board to stay in the manual position.\n   \n\nNose manual: Start out in regular manual position just with your front foot on the nose and your back foot on the back truck bolts. Now shift your weight to your front foot and lean a little bit backwards. Now balance out for a good nose manual.\n\n\n5-0 grind: Be clean with ollies and manuals. Now roll next to the object you plan on grinding with a good amount of speed and pop an ollie. Land on the back truck and shift your weight to your back foot and lean forward some. Keep balancing so you can get a pretty long grind. At the end of the grind pop an ollie off depending on the type of grinding object. Land and roll away.\n\n\nPop shuv-it: Okay get into the ollie position except put you back foot on the upper side of the tail and your front right off the lower side. Now pop down the tail and sweep your front foot forwards and your back foot backwards. The board should start doing a 180` turn so while it’s moving jump above the board to give it room to spin. After it’s done spinning catch it and roll away. \n\n\nNollie: For a nollie place your front foot on the nose and your back foot in the middle of the board. Now pop the nose down and slide your back foot up to the tail. Raise your knees while in the air and land.\n\nFrontside 180`: Get in the ollie position just have it so your front foot toes are hanging off the side of the board. Now pop and ollie and twist your hips so you’re starting to turn to the left if you’re regular footed, if you’re goofy footed to the right. Practice landing 90`s until you start landing full 180`s.\n\n\nBackside 180`: Get into the ollie position just that your front foot’s heel is hanging of the edge of the board. Now ollie and twist your hips in the other direction so your turning in the opposite direction of a frontside 180`.\n\n                                          Street trick tips: Beginner advanced\n\n\n\nPop shuv-it nose manual: Be clean with pop shuv-its, nose manuals and ollies. Now get into the pop shuv-it position and be ready for a nose manual. Shuv a shuv-it and once it’s starting to come around you want to have your feet in the nose manual position while in mid air. Note: You will only have a split second while in the air so get this down fast. Now land balanced in a nose manual and roll away.\n\n\n\nKickflip: Place your back foot on the mid side of the tail and your front foot off to the side with your heel hanging off the edge. Now pop an ollie and flick your front foot off the side of the nose making it flip. Raise your knees to your chest to stay over the board and land with your feet over the bolts. Be sure to flick off the board hard to get the rotation and raise your knees to your chest. The best place to practice kickflips is on carpet because you have more control over the board.

First off, if u are goofy, put your right foot forward close to the front screws and towards the middle not the edge, and left one behind you really close to the back edge. With both of your feet lean on your balls of ur feet, and with your left foot tip the skateboard were there is only one end of it one the floor, and at the exact same time you ROLL/SLIDE your right foot/toe upwards on the skateboard, you have to roll with enough force that the skateboard jumps into the air. If you are regular same thing just visaversa.

Joey H. answer is good.\nI have some personal tips to share with you...\n1. The best option is to start with low jumps and gain balance and 'sense' of 'air time'.\n2. When the board is 'off' the jump, make sure your balance is just in the middle (both on the length and the width). Most people crash of their side or back at the beginning... due to body freezing in the air. You should make little adjustments in order to keep the board align.\n3. The most important aspect is to think about your knees as your shock absorbers. On your first jumps, bent them more then you think you should.\n4. Try to practice on powder :)\n5. Good luck!

Assuming that you can ollie, start with kickflips, heelflips, frontside and backside 180's, frontside 5-0's, frontside 50-50's, frontside and backside boardslides. After you get that stuff down, you can step up to varial flips, 360 flips, frontside flips, backside flips, and maybe some some switch and nollie tricks. Just watch alot of skate videos and try to emulate what you see. You can also check out Transworld Skateboarding magazine.   They have alot of trick tips. Have fun, because that is what skateboarding is all about!\nwww.skateboarding.com

I had lessons for a year and a half during which time i had the most amazing falls ... so here are my tips\n\n1) If you think you will fall you will - that wierd flapping position will send you head over and will not help you keep your balance\n\n2) Relax and try the following. \n\n3) To move forward you need to zig zag or sway side to side. Push with right foot with left foot say pointing at 10 o'clock, glide on the left foot. Alternate your pushing foot - do the same with pushing with the left foot with the right foot pointing to 2 o'clock and repeat\n\n4) To move backwards, simply push in front of you with your toes in the same manner with a slight twist in your hips. \n\n5) To stop, point your toes to the same spot 2 feet ahead of you and glide to a halt. Bend your knees or you will flip. \n\n6) If feeling more adventurous, perform 3) but with a running pace. To stop you will need to point both feet to the side and cover some poor sole in snow. \n\nWhatever you do enjoy!
