How to Ollie Over Coping

In this podcast, we follow a skateboarding lesson aimed at perfecting frontside ollies on a vert ramp. The instructor walks the student through a step-by-step progression. They start with small ollies over a figure eight, then gradually ramp up the speed and distance, ultimately aiming to clear a gap and ride up a vert wall. Essential techniques are highlighted, such as maintaining a "rainbow" trajectory, timing the pop exactly with the ramp's transition, and practicing a safe bail method. As the lesson wraps up, the instructor offers tips for independent practice, emphasizing the importance of exaggerating the pump and lifting the knees for improved height and control. By the end of the session, the student shows remarkable progress.
