This is actually a combination of two tricks and only one example of hundreds of others. You can find other tricks simply by making one trick after another.

By combining these tricks, it not only looks much harder than what they actually are, but also makes you feel better.



How to Ollie to Tail Press:


Not to mention, you should be able to make a nice and cool ollie and tailpress by now,


[1] Transfer all your weight on the tail of the board. After leaning towards back as far as you can without falling, bounce off the board with your hind leg. Untill here, it is the same as making the ollie.



[2] Maintain your balance while in the air. When you are about to land on the ground, remember that you can only land on the tail. Make sure the other part of the board does not touch the ground.



[3] After you land on the tail, transmit all your weight towards the tail again and keep leaning back. If you get your arms close to the tail, it helps to keep your weight on the tail.



[4] Essentially, you land on one leg instead of the two like the ollie, and keep your body on the nose and pressing it.



If you get an idea of pressing one of the edges after landing from the ollie, you can pretty much advance that skill to other tricks.
