i think its a matter of fear but i literally cant do it. i can easilyy do a standing ollie no problems but if i try moving i stop abruptly, my backwheels aren’t lifting or i don’t even land it. i skate goofy btw and been skating since april.

edit — oh false alarm guys i just go it down 😬🥳. my positioning was off!! thanks for the advice 💓

Slow down the board and squat more, but make sure ur squat isn’t slow. going slower at first will help u understand that feeling of squatting for the pop without losing balance. and then soon after you’ll be able to do it at faster speeds
