How do you Ollie on a Sakteboard?
If you mean Skateboard, then I can help. For starters, put your back foot at the end of the skateboard with only the ball of your foot touching the board, and put your front foot in the middle of the board. Firstly, push down your back foot pretty hard. Secondly, Jump with the skateboard Then, slide your front foot to the top of the board.
