Trick Tips

As you may have guessed this page covers trick tips, many of us at Rollersnakes skate. Some are even sponsored. So we thought it only right to not just supply you guys with excellent skating gear but also help you with tricks that you need to master. Starting with the most basic skateboard & inline tricks.

The Ollie - Well what can I say most of us have been there and done it, but for those of you who haven't mastered the trick of tricks otherwise known as the ollie, then you need to do the following.

1. Roll along - place your rear foot on the tail - front foot just behind the truck bolts.
2. Pop the tail to the floor - jump at the same time dragging your front foot up the deck.
3. Level out mid air - and land it.

Well that was a bit basic so we've got Craig Smedley in from the Icon team to show you how its done.
