It looks pretty close it's just not a good rail in my opinion. Hard to slide out with the legs how they are. As far as getting bigger ollie's have you checked out skateiq's Ollie video? It's really great info. Here it is if you haven't, dude is the first person to land a 1260 on a skateboard. [VIDEO]

An ollie is not pop and slide: New SKATEiQ video: [VIDEO] Start with rolling hippy jumps, get height, length and time in the air. Then move your feet to ollie position (on the balls of your feet, no flat feet!). Then do a hippy jump. The nose will pop up just because of the force of your jump and because the back foot is leaving the board slightly later. Get the nose higher by getting your foot up faster (not slide).
