Tutorial from the Adventure Family channel on a tennis ball drill for ollies. Balls go over the wheels so the board stays put while you work on landing over the bolts.

So basically you use tennis balls over your wheels and it stops them from rolling as much so you can focus more on landing on the bolts and not slipping out. It helped me with committing to the trick because I was worried I’d land weird and the board would shoot out from under my feet. Here is a video that I found about how to make them. [VIDEO]
