I spent much of my pre-drivers license years suiting up in skateboarding equipment after school and heading down to the local outdoor skate parks especially around this time of the year. I took a long vacation from the sport but am back into it now. Working long hours in front of a computer is all the motivation I need for fresh air and outdoor living. My roommate likes skating too so we have made it a goal to get out and skate on a local trail a couple of times a week. He is really good. Like me, he took a very long break from it but he skated up until his early twenties.
I had been having trouble getting my moving ollie back. It is the simplest of maneuvers but my body just couldn’t remember how to do it well. My roommate gave me his skateboarding equipment to tighten my trucks, which really helped. Then he told me to put my back foot further on the tail of the board before squatting down. It worked and now my ollie is getting higher and higher.
