[VIDEO] looks like youre leaning back a bit too much this video has a bunch of good info

Board familiarity is super important. If you're not comfortable just riding around then its going to be super sketchy when you start trying to leave the ground. When you start trying to learn ollies and tricks, you can give yourself a confidence boost by practicing next to/holding on to a handrail. Jonny Giger shows this in one of his latest videos @ about 5:30 in. [VIDEO]
