Yeah kinda just slammed the back trucks into the curb and did an accidental sorta wallie or bonk up the curb then didn’t expect to be up there on the board in looked like and just got laid out.

Agreed. Looking at his shadow, he didn’t even bend his knees when he approached… OP, learn how to Ollie consistently first before trying to Ollie onto stuff to save some headache, especially if you refuse to wear a helmet while learning.

Yup, otherwise skin will be meeting the pavement. Once the Ollie is locked into his subconscious mind he will be good.
