As a 40 y.o. starting up again after 20yrs absence, watching Rick going for it is very encouraging 😊
Learning next to my 10y.o. so the Braille videos are gold🤩
Thanks for giving us a platform of extensive learning material❤
Dude more of Rick G please!! Dude is such a perfectionist. Relatable af.
Man Rick G seems like a really cool dude. Loved the vid AK. Cool to see you drop this after what you and Gabe talked about in the podcast. Keep figuring it out my dude. Much love ❤️
“It’s almost like you’re throwing the board at the ground with your ankle” key words that helped me in my Ollie journey
Rick G is such a vibe. Plus he looks like Lance if he got stuck in Jumanji for ten years.
ive never rolled across a skate park or dropped in, only ollied a couple times 18yrs ago, would be a dream to learn how to skate, these videos make an old man want to actually learn to skate. please never stop teaching!!!
Do it. Start at a regular park with paved trails and just cruise. See where it goes from there. 🙂
Awesome. This is timely. Trying to work on my Ollie right now.
Proud of Rick! I'm almost 40 getting back into skating after like 15 years and it's inspiring to see this gentleman putting in work!
I love Rick G's energy so much
The ankle action with the toe is key. I also always thought about teaching people to jump in that “Superman” position so they keep that back leg down longer. Kinda like a super rocket Ollie. Also maybe stomping it to hard and early, let it float?
Great video! One thing that never got addressed was how his Ollie drifts to the heel side at times. As a 49 year old skater who started my skating journey during Covid, I share his frustration. I have Ollie’s over 3 boards consistently, and have gone over 4, but never with the desired board control that this gentleman is searching for as well. Every video says it’s a shoulder problem but I think it’s a front hip/ front drag problem. I’ve gotten it to stop and then it’s creeped back because I don’t know the root cause. If anyone has a hack to prevent the board from drifting heel side, I’m all ears. Keep up the great work AK!!
I love old guys that wanna learn how to skate. I met a guy today who owns a new Popeyes franchise near my skatepark, and he was puttin some work in for his restaurant, I always noticed him eying me at the skatepark and had a feeling he probably skated or at least thought it was cool or something. Well today, since he always parks next to the skatepark, he saw me skating and walked by and said “hey check this out”, he then brought out an old school skateboard and started showing me his Ollie and asking for tips, but I just thought wow, how wild is it to be his age (he looked older, maybe 40’s) and wanna learn to skate. It’s truly commendable and inspiring, and his Ollie’s didn’t even look half bad!
rick g you got it. such an inspiration
That's incredible! Thank you so much for the video! I have the same problem as Rick, but it took me weeks to find your video. All the other suggested ones are for complete beginners, and since they do not go into details of the wrong technique, it is impossible to figure out how to alter it on my own. I will implement all the new knowledge for a tomorrow's practice!
Rick G video part ASAP. I NEED TO SEE THIS 🎉
My first one is on my UA-cam Channel, second installment coming this winter ❤❤
One thing thing with the first example-Ollie is also just how big the obstacle is. When you roll up to it it doesnt look possible to get over it but you know by experience that you are able, all you have to do is to make a sick Ollie with all the power and technique you got. It´s a bit "i just have to make this"-mentality.
When you really bang the tail to the ground the board will fly up with force so your jump will be slower than the board. The leverage when your really bang it.
Think about what would happen if you were standning beside your board and just stomp your foot the hardest and fastest you can on the end tail. It would fly several meters up in the air. Fast. With force.
Skate every day, jump over higher and higher obstacles. That will perfect your technique, You absolutely have the potential for a great Ollie with this mindset and the technique you already have.
The current level he is at that is a perfectly acceptable ollie. Perfecting an ollie takes time. I think he need to focus more on olliing on and off things and over things and maybe a learn to 50-50 which is fairly easy on 2 foot high boxes. the more you skate as focus less on a single trick the faster you will progress it werd but it works. My only advice would be to bring his front foot back a small bit then his drag will be more connected and it will look like the board is stuck you his feet. My friend and I used to call it stickly feet lol still hats off him and to anyone who is learning to skate at 30 + years old. I'm going on 35 and I've been skating since I was 16 and now after a day of skating I'm feeling it ache and pains everywhere and that with out bailing lol very inspiring stuff indeed.
Yes that's me I am struggling with mine as well I have the Ollie in a crack or with trainers but can't get it unassisted, I wanted to get it before my next birthday 53rd but not sure its going to happen my B-day is July 20th in 2 days.
dont give up.
@@Cheesyblz oh I won’t give up I just don’t think I land one before my birthday in 2 days. I was hoping by the age of 53 I would have my Ollie down but it is taking longer than I thought also harder than I thought.
@@StephenShaunW yes I am terrified at just Oiling while not in a crack haven’t made it to rolling yet I can imagine that’s even more scary! We will get it though conquer your fears !!!
Bro is killin it! Just keep it up G!
This video helped me a lot on how to improve. Thanks Aaron and Rick!
This was very helpful to watch, from a 'beginners' stand point.
Rick looks like he skates down dinosaur bones after he digs them up.
Rick G is a legend
Old video but im still working on getting my ollie. This was a very helpful video as Im about right where Rick G is
Funny to me how aaron explains the timing just once and then Rick nails a great one at only 5:40 into the video haha
Thanks as always Braille! You make a big difference
I think the back foot position works for me. Like 9:26 and 12:52 AK's back foot you can see there is part of his shoe hanging outside the board. For me those pop position will that board respond quicker and feel more connected. TRY IT
More Rick G please ❤
The Legend Rick G!! Great video. Bring more times Rick G!!! 🥳
I’ll take that second Ollie any day
I like watching rick g.
Dude is legit
WOW! Things been hard for Lance!
I need to learn how to ollie.
42yr old mountainbiker/snowboarder who use my board for cruising only.
Ancle action with with the toe pressure, also It needs to happen simultaniously in my mind...As soon as the tail pops the front foot instantly drags
I love Rick G
My biggest hack was tying my trucks tighter. Gave me a much better pop and control of the board
Rick G, video park !! Let’s goo
Awesome vid! Looks like the key is not to skip out on that calf workouts, so you can get a clean pop, then just let it float it down.
Rick, I'm a mid 40s beginner skater on the journey...think about keeping your knees bent the whole time, when you land your knees are still bent, hope that helps bro!
🙏🏽❤❤🙏🏽
23:58 I think he's doing two different movements to jump, first he elevates his hip, and then he kicks the board, so I think this reduces the power of the Ollie and also make his leg stay bended instead of straight as would it been if he just did one motion ( the same two movements at the same time)
Rick G inda hooooousee. What a g
Great ollies sir Heisenberg
I wish I could ollie that well.
22:25
I never thought of that. Using an ollie north to help train the back foot could be very useful
🤡
I see where he was coming from too because I just practiced Ollie’s for 1 year until it leveled out
Tell the old man to start olliing on fun boxes and jumping 5 gallon buckets
If he can do a 5 gallon bucket. He's the man.
Shout out to Rick! I'm having trouble with my front leg pulling the board frontside so when I go to land my board is nearly sideways. Anyone else doin this? How to fix?
Rick G. and I are similar in that way !
And that skater was flying when he did the Ollie in the vid. Speed
Was that mogley behind the camera?
I need help with my Ollies
I can pop and land big crispy Ollies in the grass. When im on skatepark smooth ground the board slides out under me
My back foot NEVER wants to come up until the very ending of the Ollie when I'm about to touch the ground then it ballance out
Dr. AK the skate doctor should be his name 😂❤
thx
Try jumping more rather than just lifting the back leg up when you pop. You need a little more hang-time (not necessarily more height). It's all happening too fast. But either way, you've already got a pretty decent ollie my friend. Keep it up
🙏🏽❤️❤️🙏🏽
I have been skating casually for 26 years on and off. I just got back into it and one of the things that was always a barrier was ollies off of things like a stair set or something. idk why but if I jump off of something the board never stays under my feet.
Maybe you are turning your shoulders too much? :) You'll land it!
i’m new to to skating so is the dominant foot on the nose or the tail
@@xgenkea It depends on the person, your natural stance could go either way. If you imagine sliding on a wood floor wearing socks, whichever foot you'd put in front is your natural stance. Right foot in front is called "goofy" Left foot in front is called "Regular".
@@Legend_of_Rick_G yeah i know that but i mean like does my right foot go on the big side or the small side of the deck
@@purplepixeleater this seems to help ill keep practicing. thank you!!
Anyone know what board Rick is using ? I like the shape of it
It’s an Andy Anderson Heron deck with a custom graphic ;)
@@Legend_of_Rick_G awesome man thanks!
i havent sketed in over 10 years and i feel i could still flip a tre in an hour
He should do it real rocket, then push forward at the peak more. He also just need to work on air time by keeping his knees bent as he's at the peak, and also falling.
The lighting in this video made me think my phone was broken
Is that an Andy Anderson board??
Yes sir, Heron 9.13 😍
Rick g is a g
Duh
Kicker ramps help re learn timing.faster.
hearing "its in the ankle" and im sitting here with like no mobility in my ankle because a birth defect xD Im making it work though! Already got my ollie pretty solid. Heelflips are coming. Kickflip... not so much
That photo never got in focus 😂
I wonder if a simple ankle weight on the pop foot would help delay the leg to keep the connection. But I have zero xp in this.
another thing i found is that aaron starts lifting his front foot earlier than rick g. Rick g needs to lift up as he's jumping but he's doing it slightly too late.
this gotta be the most boujie old man ever lmao 🤣 how you telling kyro what an ollie looks like lmao 🤣
looks like he just needs to do a fully rocketed ollie with no backfoot lift at all to start with. just pop the tail leave the foot down pinning the tail to the ground to start with. after that he can slowly work on the back leg lift. just get the front as vertical as you could as step 1. yeah if he goes faster and ollies further back from the block he' can give himself time to just keep that back foot down longer. the guy he was lookin at as a perfect ollie was going really and ollieing over something much larger than a parking block.
Yeah i need to work on my ollie also. I realized this last night trying to heelflip a long two stair at my park. After 30000 failed attempts and 89 gallons of sweat, i tried to ollie it instead. First one was clean, but then the next 5 were hit and miss, no wonder i couldnt get the heelflip. Next session will be only ollies.
With the heel flip it a bit of a commitment trick as you need to stay centered over the board and it very easy to land primo and go flying it happen to be a lot I even landed my on my back in a primo 😂If you find the board is flipping behind you instead of underneath you then try leaning back on your heel edge just as you pop the board and drag you heel off the deck. I like to think of it sitting on a chair up in the air, I find it helped help me stay centered over the board in the past while getting more consistant with the trick and if I haven't skated in a while and need to tweek my body position the find the right set up to get my heel flips back then it just muscle memory. Best of luck. Once you get heel flip it's a fairly consistsnt trick.
Like and enjoy 👍🍀🛹🍀👍

i think rick just needs to practice a lot more ollies and just feel it out. u can drive yourself crazy thinking about all the different variables and worse if ur switching ur technique up constantly
Rick is trying to Ollie to soon. He’s jumping before his board is ready.
Needs to pop sooner.
Master Natas has the greatest ollie
100th comment?
First
It's not smart to over think your Ollie. Just practice it. Jumping on to things and over.
Draw near to Jesus and he will draw near to you
First pin?? 🎉
Think fulcrums & pendulums! Kinetic energy & potential energy! Center of gravity! Weight distribution!😉🤓 SCIENCE! 😂 What my daily skate life looks like... Constantly thinking of these terms. I like Sk8!!!!🛹😍
with all the clips Aaron has done on the ollie, who would have know he could manage to add another 26 minutes and make it this interesting to watch..🤌
lets gooo
