i need some advice from an experienced skater. my decks snap way too easy. i got a real a week ago and its already cracked. i was flipping about a 4 foot wall( i've done better-don't laugh) and my board cracked. i have been ollieing bigger stuff lately like 10 stairs and stuff but i think i'm just landing on the tail to hard. ne advice?

Another thing you could do is try to land on the bolts

Maybe your landings just eat nuts. Keep your feet over your trucks and bend your legs when you land.
