Notes:

This skatedeluxe trick tip uses production value and multiple angles to break down ollies from every perspective. If you’re a visual learner who benefits from seeing an ollie from the side, front, and above, this is your resource.

Who This Video Helps

Skaters who learn better from multiple camera angles, people who need to see the board movement clearly, or viewers who prefer production-heavy tutorials where every detail is highlighted.

What To Watch Closely

  • Multiple angles of the snap. Watching the snap from the side shows the arc of the tail; from above shows the alignment. Combine them in your mind.
  • Slow-motion sequences. Many skatedeluxe videos use slow-mo to show the exact moment of liftoff and the scoop motion.
  • Side-by-side comparison. If included, notice what separates clean ollies from sloppy ones.

Common Mistakes

  • Over-analyzing multiple angles. After the first watch, focus on one angle (usually side view) to build muscle memory rather than paralysis.
  • Copying style instead of mechanics. The filmer’s style looks good but might not match your body. Focus on the mechanics, not the vibe.

Try This Drill

Watch one angle carefully. Practice ollies for 10 minutes focusing on that specific view in your mind. Then switch to another angle and practice again. Your brain will integrate all angles into one complete understanding.

Dojo Note

Different brains need different inputs. One skater learns from words, another from side-view footage, another from feeling it in their body. There’s no wrong way to learn, only the way that works for you. Find your angle.

What To Learn Next

Once skatedeluxe ollies click for you, trust that foundation and move toward nollies or manuals.
