Hi there,

I looked on skateboard-city for the nollie trick tip came across it watched the video and then on the comments page it said it wasnt in the right stance or something.

What i was wanting no whats the stance is it just your regular stance but on your nose?
Spicker
yeah, its the switch version of fakie.

if your standing in your normal stance(regular or goofy), you just shift your sliding foot onto the nose, and popping foot slides up to become the sliding foot.

If your Goofy its skating Regular postion on the nose, if your Regular its skating Goory position on the nose!

just a little nollie tip.

i personally find it easier to point my popping foot forwards and point my sliding foot slightly in the other direction and nearly on the back bolts. this may not work for you though, so just put em where it feels comfortable.

ye wen your in your normal stance you just put your front foot on the nose and instead of using the back foot to pop you use your front foot so your left one(cos your regular)
IiisitSiick
So I'm goofy would it not be a nollie if i used my left leg to pop the nose whilst going forwards? would that just be a fakie ollie?
SkateMike
ok if your goofy using your left leg to pop while going forwards is a goofy stance ollie

while going backwards its fakie

now put your right foot on the nose and your left leg in the middle of the board and go forwards then pop with your right foot and drag with you left thats called a nollie

now push yourself backwards and do the same that is called switch

i hope that helps pinch.gif
