How to Ollie to Fakie

In this podcast episode, listeners are taken through a skateboarding lesson centered on performing an ollie to fakie in a transition. The instructor skillfully guides the student, stressing the importance of rhythm, timing, and foot placement. Key points include the ideal moment to pop the ollie—just before reaching the apex of the transition—how to pull up the knees for more airtime, and landing smoothly into a pump. Visual aids, like tape marking an imaginary coping, help the student grasp the right height and timing. By the end of the lesson, the student shows impressive progress, and the instructor shares a valuable tip on how to adjust foot placement in mid-air for enhanced balance.
