Hey no ones gonna critisize u for asking. Thats what this is all about. An ollie is just jumping basically.
Get goin at a moderate speed
put your front foot slightly infront of the middle part of the board and your back foot on the tail. Stay on the balls of your feet
Next, push down really hard on the tail and slide your front foot up the griptape to about the beginning of the nose.
Roll your front foot to the side to help the board level out
slide your back foot up slightly
keep your center of gravity well...centered
*Bend Those knee's*
land and call your boys

k, an ollie is basically just a jump with ur board. no flips or anything. just a jump where the board comes with u. 1st u gotta start with ur foot placing:front foot about an inch behind the front bolts and back foot on the very tip of the tail. kick down the back foot then quickly pop it back up and at the same slide ur front foot up to the nose and level out. then as ur landin bend ur knees. it might not be that great of an explanation but i hope it helps and if it doesnt go to www.skateboarding.com/skate/ and go to trick tips then see the ollie video trick tip, but ignore the part with the front foot right in the middle of the board. keep it about 1 inch from the front bolts then when u can ollie a bit, u can work ur way to the mid |

ooook....
after you've made you're approach and you're in mid air, you want the board to be totally flat not some of it pointing up or down. You want it to be straight. thus, leveling out
