|
|
I have been trying to learn how to get my ollie up really high to try some grabs and other stuff. I know the harder and faster you kick down the back the higher you go, but is there a way to get the board to push you up more as you jump or something?
Here's some pics of us messing around: the barrel pics are about as high as I can get. "filled with water about 1/4 of the way" I want to get it with no water.

I really like the board. The only other boards I've ridden though is a small plain casette grip top and a hyperlite catalyst and I like the deck a lot more than those. Most of the people I ride with who try the deck end up riding it the rest of the day.
I have an extra brand new one still in the package I was thinking about keeping around, but if anyone is interested I'll sell it cheap. |

yep harder you push higher you get you might also want to slide you feet up the board. |
