You’re bending over, not squatting. Front foot looks like it’s on an angle & you’re heel is hanging off the board. Not sliding the side of your foot up the board either. Back foot doesn’t go up as high as your front & kinda looks like it’s kicking out in front of you making the board rotate behind you? I dunno. There’s probably more things. I’d watch that YouTube Braille Skateboarding how to Ollie [VIDEO] and compare
