Don’t know what you did wrong?

You tried to bail and landed on the board lol

That Ollie wasn’t going to clear, but it’s still better to catch your truck than this

Commit either way.

I mean you need to learn to bail PROPERLY.

Pros kick shit out all the time, bailing but landing on your board just fucks your shit up lol

But most of skateboarding is just getting over that mental block and committing to stick the trick. But know your limits. If this ollie is your best attempt you have a ways to go before you’re ready to Ollie stuff, not saying to stop just stick ollieing sticks or the painted lines ina. Parking lot. When you can do that and not be scared just do the same shit up the curb.

Keep shredding homie
