1. to push more comfortably you’d want to focus on getting more comfortable riding the board while balancing on ur front foot and keeping most of ur weight on that foot as you push. this will look better and generate better power with each push. also try to put ur back foot more softly on the board. 2. when you’re doing ur ollies i’ve noticed that sometimes you’d pop by planting ur foot on the floor and jumping from

Yeah this is literally me. I always pushed mongo as a kid (I’m 35 now) and just picked up skating after a 15-20 year break.

I recommend watching skate IQ [VIDEO] videos on YouTube. He is by far the best online tutorial for any stage of skateboarding.
