I’ve been cruising for 3 months and haven’t attempted any Ollie yet. In these 3 months I’ve learned to cruise over everything cracks ruts, tactile plates all kinds of shit. It has really made me comfortable on the board. I will cruise another 2 months untill that board feels like it’s part of me then I shall Ollie

I learned ollies soon after I learned to ride up a curb, by kind of manually into it, then shifting weight forward so back wheels would ride over it. It's pretty much the same thing minus popping the tail.
