nickhallett Posts : 239 ONLINE	Posted on Aug 31, 2006 It took me almost 2 weeks before I got it. But once you get your first ollie they become very easy very quick. The ollie took me longer to learn than any other do-able flat ground trick.

chelsmeo Posts : 1 OFFLINE	Posted on Sep 19, 2006 I've been skating since April and I still ain't got it yet. Just the stupid drag I can't get.

Adam Posts : 156 OFFLINE	Posted on Sep 19, 2006 Try and get a nice crisp pop, It all begins with the initial pop

c2_zero Posts : 6 OFFLINE	Posted on Sep 20, 2006 a month or so...

cameron1 Posts : 16 OFFLINE	Posted on Dec 05, 2006 a week not moving and bout three weeks moving

FlipTrick Posts : 4 ONLINE	Posted on Dec 05, 2006 Posted by chelsmeo I've been skating since April and I still ain't got it yet. Just the stupid drag I can't get. hey instead of dragging your foot on the board, lift your foot almost straight up and that will pull the board off the ground, then straighten it back out. It took me like a week to get it moving cuz I learned it moving, not just sitting there!
	JaCe!

atntheskater Posts : 1638 ONLINE	Posted on Feb 12, 2007 3 years and im still having problems with it cause youll never get it to where you want it to be. you want it higher, more steez, etc so youll never master it you can do it, but never have it down.

hippietrish Posts : 38 ONLINE	Posted on Jul 28, 2008 took me a few months to actually get it right.. more of it was mental.. using other peoples instruction as a guideline then taking what they said and adapting it to me.. so that i was comfortable with it.. cause everyone has their own style and it seems like if you ignore what everyone else is saying and just do it.. it feels more.. right.. i dont know.. im rambling.. does this make sense?
	Trish! The dish.

Z3RO_or_DIE Posts : 6 ONLINE	Posted on Aug 27, 2008 i was kinda able 2 do an ollie da first day i tried, but it was very un-evn, so it took about a week 2 get the board level and 2 get some good air.

Hurrayego Posts : 5 ONLINE	Posted on Feb 05, 2009 Posted by fallendevil it took me a good week or 2 after i just found out about skateboarding i think its a great trick for beginners It's a basic, which means it's a trick you need to know how to do, to set any other tricks, so yeah.. it's a great trick for beginners ! ~ Took me about a year, coz i wasnt really motivated to fail all day.
