This is so true. If I don't feel confident in my ollies, than I don't feel comfortable doing 90% of the tricks I can already do. Your ollies are what give you confidence and power

[@SKATEiQ]

I wholeheartedly agree. How are we gonna build on something with skateboarding being as scary as it is… We have to feel comfortable

[@SheepYT]

would love a simple "how to do a ollie for begginers" video from you

[@skatehiphop_fb]

Check his shorts for Ollie. Great and short explanation

[@yunusjagot3673]

Hey Mitchie, Beginner 28 year old skater here from the UK. Your attention to detail and ability to correct your students is incredible! Keep up the great work! Love your videos man - super helpful! Thanks Yunus

[@SKATEiQ]

love to hear that, thank you! im happy youre liking the content and it works for beginners. a lot more comming!

[@bobbybottleservice1027]

@SKATEiQ you’re a natural teacher and I have no doubt this channel will grow a lot

[@cjreed2090]

This dude is a genius at explaining every detail in a single aspect of skating thanks so much

[@SKATEiQ]

Thank you! im happy you are enjoying the content!

[@deez_gainz]

This content is so useful! Do you think you can make a video on backside 180s?

[@alanalso]

Yes please. I struggle to get that full rotation. I do more of a twist were my torso doesn’t fully follow my feet.

[@SKATEiQ]

It’s exporting now

[@Green1up]

Dude your videos are so helpful and inspiring thank you from a 36 year old skater getting back on the board

[@SKATEiQ]

Perfect! Great to hear

[@SuperDoctorprofessor]

You talk about skating in a way that is so, so helpful. Mitchie, thank you! Keep posting!

[@uffu2490]

Riding switch helps in terms of understanding the correct balance point. 🙏🏻 Think about it. You HAVE to balance on your toes (both feet) so, the more comfortable you are skating switch, the more likely you are to balance correctly and, hence, pop higher. Regardless, your explanations are the best out there. 🙏🏻

[@Reyflatt]

Ha at 48 years old "do my legs feel weak?" Yes sir. But this channel has already helped in relearning. I never thought of this stuff when I was 13.

[@user-pc9ex7pi4x]

I feel so lucky to find your channel. I saw few pro skaters share their own technique actively and precisely. I just skate 2.5 yrs and after applying those trick tips you gave, I found them improve my tricks so well. I now struggle with mini ramp tricks, and I wonder if you can make a series of tutorials about mini ramp tricks for beginners? I will be super appreciate it.

[@SKATEiQ]

Hey yeah, so we launched a Patreon with 170+ videos on it covering flat ground and vert. But were updating it monthly with new courses and the mini ramp course will be on there soon. Either 1 or 2 months from now most likely

[@user-pc9ex7pi4x]

@@SKATEiQ Thanks🙏

[@LuLzezRoflcopter]

Warming up those hip flexor muscles 😊 super important muscle when raising your legs like this

[@SKATEiQ]

It’s insane how much they get overworked skating

[@radarshak3092]

I started skating at 26, i am 28 now and my ollies are almost knee high. Next is 180 Ollies. 😁Thanx for the tips man. You really help me a lot.

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s great. You got this! If you get stuck on your 180s we have backside, frontside, and half cabs on our Patreon. Plus like 170 videos in total

[@Jonifico]

Hey, man! Could you please make a video on how to Ollie for beginners? I know there's a million out there but nobody talks about this like you. Y'know, common mistakes, how to think about it, etc.? Could help a lot of folks and help you get really out there bc everybody searches that

[@SKATEiQ]

Yes. We have a full ollie course on patreon.com/skateiq there are 85+ videos on the channel and we update it with new content every month !

[@Jonifico]

@@SKATEiQ thanks bro, I'll check it out. I love your content!!! 🛹

[@SKATEiQ]

@@Jonifico thank you! Trying to bring as much quality content as we possibly can

[@realdopewater]

Thanks I enjoyed this. Do you have a full straight Ollie tutorial? Been working on mine but feeling a bit stagnant.

[@SKATEiQ]

Yes we do. We just uploaded a full course onto Patreon!

[@Jaden-ui1jl]

can you do a video on popping ollie’s on ramps

[@ThrashinHD]

Is this gonna be like a program/series? Honestly this is what I wanted skate skool to be back then lol 😂

[@SKATEiQ]

Yeah, this is from our free ebook, a 20 video series we did. you can click the link in the description and watch all of them in order

[@ThrashinHD]

@@SKATEiQ haha crazy timing just had first vert day today using your series I plan on continuing to watch and use it for these next coming months

[@SKATEiQ]

oh great!!!@@ThrashinHD let me know how you like it. were definitely open to feedback so we can make sure were putting the right content out for you guys

[@GoSkateLouisa]

Thank you!! man you are a skaters trick encyclopedia 🙏 (yeah I'm over 40 ha)

[@SKATEiQ]

Oh man, love the over 40 club! lotta you guys in here!!

[@GoSkateLouisa]

@@SKATEiQ we are everywhere and all teaching our kids. Passing the torch is the best 🤙

[@laggerwerks710]

Can you do a video showing feet placement, and are they in the same position as when you Ollie up a bank vs flat ground or do you adjust? I can stomp a good Ollie standing still but I always psych myself out when I try to gap something or Ollie onto a ledge or manny pad. I really want to do this 6 stair at my local but my feet placement is preventing me.

[@SKATEiQ]

I instead of thinking about that too much I would focus on getting your Ollie’s high and not stopping down on the ground too fast. It sounds like you have trouble getting into the air and floating for a while more than foot placwmwnt

[@DanielGonzalez74543]

Where is this park located?

[@mrSPEEDCASKET]

I learn something everytime I click on this guy

[@worriesinthedance]

Hi, just tried to access the kickflip practice video link but it is flagged private?

[@SKATEiQ]

Hey thanks for the heads up we’re working on it now

[@SKATEiQ]

I found the issue. it should be fixed, let me know if it works now! sorry about that. were dealing with lots of content behind the scenes and it got moved from untitled accidentally and destroyed the link (temporarily hopefully) if it doesnt work, just respond to this comment and we will make sure you have access tomorrow

[@worriesinthedance]

the link works now, thanks!@@SKATEiQ

[@rogerdavis9962]

🤘💪

[@keelo-byte]

My frienda are.. pretty damn high.

[@SKATEiQ]

Haha

[@32srt32]

why does your wheels sound like they have flat spots?

[@denvermadison9052]

Pop an Ollie now I’m sweating!!!

[@infeza3255]

hey i know this park! Noble Park in Melbourne!

[@SKATEiQ]

Yes exactly !

[@thehandleiwantedwasntavailable]

That pop…

[@rat183]

What park is this?

[@SKATEiQ]

Noble park in Australia

[@pietrol4449]

TRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

[@mytorment]

I already ollie higher than my friends..... I have no friends 😅🫒

[@SKATEiQ]

Haha self burn

[@mytorment]

@@SKATEiQ it's actually worse bro..... I can't really even ollie 😅😭🫒

[@JerseyDevils21]

​It just keep getting better! 😁👍

[@mytorment]

@@JerseyDevils21 are you going to be my friend?? 🥺🥺🥺

[@termikes174]

Keep practicing and be open to making friends.

[@YouilAushana]

Shits lame. Keep the competition to the toxic sports. We should all enjoy Ollie's together and if someone is higher. Good for them. If they _need_ to be higher than me. They could use some deep shadow work with a qualified professional or their ambitious single mother can kick rocks

[@SKATEiQ]

took it a bit literal eh

[@YouilAushana]

​​​​@@SKATEiQi know its a goof. While I got your attention do a video about effortless airs over hips. People can get trippy for sure and there is plenty of collateral damage from unapologetic oblivious actions. Especially, after tons of trauma and abuse. We all didn't get skate camps and coaches. So, back off!
