3 Skateboard Tricks to Learn Before Ollies 

I actually want to see Andy’s tutorial on ollies because I like the way he explains things.

I love Sarah’s videos because her level is much more relatable to newcomers like me. I suppose Mike is someone she would learn from. Mike is apparently also very supportive of her content as he often ❤️ her posts on Instagram. Great to see a shout out to her here. Must mean a lot to her. Wholesomeness everywhere.

This is video is such wholesome, positive vibes. Big fun. Awesome to see Sarah Park-Matott’s channel getting some love. I’m a 36 year-old beginner and her channel has been an amazing resource and source of inspiration. It’s so refreshing to see other styles of skating other than Ollie/kick-flip centric stuff. Andy’s metaphor of the closed doors in a corridor and everyone is in the ollie room really hit.

always cool to see some non Ollie tricks. Thanks Andy & Mike

I'm currently 3 weeks into learning how to skate again at age 30. it's been at least 12-15 years since i last skated. back then it was for fun/transport and i never got an ollie down. I was starting to get discouraged because 3 weeks into it all "ollies" are doing to me is hurt my back leg. these tricks (and Sarah's tricks watching that next.) are gonna keep me going as i get my tridecade body into skating shape. thanks so much!

Sarah's voice is soooooo hypnotic.

Please make more videos like this that very helpful for me, hope one day I can skate with you

Really great video! I'm workin on the j walks now! Thank you!

In the early seventies I think we ollied without knowing it...I would go up curbs and sort of pop a wheelie, jump and unweight the board and then push down on the front when it was over the curb... eventually when you timed it right, you could go up curbs without your back wheel hitting the curb...I guess that must have been an ollie..There really wasn't any name for it.

Love all these videos man, learning a lot. I've been skating on and off for the last 20 or so years, but I'm just now getting into freestyling and it's like opening up a whole new door of skating like Andy said.

Could listen to Andy and Mike talk for hours LOL so cool you guys got to meet up, skate, chill and teach us some tricks!

Those etnies are crazy looking! Bet they are great for saving laces when skating transition and vert.

I love seeing this. I grew up across the street. And also big Anderson fan. Awesome.

2:54 Those shoes bring back memories of the Airwalk Vic model from waaaaaay back.

Shout out Sarah!

Love this so much. I really appreciate freestyle tricks. There are just so many awesome varieties of movements that incorporate your hands and feet. Your whole body goes into the tricks. Not just your feet and hips. Don't even need an obstacle. The ground is one big obstacle just waiting to be used as a canvas of fun. Rock on guys

Another great video Mike! OMG...thanks Andy for mentioning "Street Survival" with Bill Danforth....I watched it and soaked in all that late 80s radness. I remember doing those awkward wall tricks - the liquor store man used to get so mad at us! I'm surprised I missed that one considering its from my era. I think my favorite movie from that time was "Future Primitive" (Bones Brigade Video II, 1985) - that is a must see.

Love Sarah's channel! I've been subbed to her for a while now.

Those first lines from Andy was spot on! Everyone hangs out in the Ollie room. Couldn’t have said it better 😀

I wasn't expecting Andy, Mike and Sarah in one vid. Nice! :)

We need more freestyle-tutorials like this!

This is super inspiring. I suffer with arthritis but I don't want to do any jumping tricks until I get super creative with simply cruising.

Love seeing Andy in more videos! Solid shoutout too ;)

Pls make a video on the swing to fakie!

I do a lot of tricks like the last one but I do I been plant positioning to do the 360 finger flip

Andy said he got all his tricks from " Street Survival - Bill Danforth" 1hour long How To Skate video!!!!!!! Hope this opens doors of creativity!!!

This is awesome!!!

plus a dash of anger Robbie: ARGH!! 🤣🤣🤣

trash at my street tricks so gonna try learning the first one. great video

the amount of money i would pay to have andy and you explain every single trick you know in depth... a gazillion dollareedoos

Respect to all forms of skateboarding

In here doing some research on Andy's Shoes... Because I need them in every colorways when they release

Heck yeah

Big fan Mike, keep it up!!

The “around-the-world” trick was a lot easier than I thought it was. Literally learned it within an hour. I might post one on my channel.

What is that yellow board? Looks cool

Eazy, Thanks ya bro

I can do my heel flip direction finger flips but I never got the kickflip direction ones 🤔

That board in the thumbnail is a platipus board? Thats the brand Zarosh is doing, so cool, his dirtboards are sick!

Freestyle is cooler than I thought. Free movements😯😲😀

You guys are the best skate dancers around.

What kind of skateboard is that? and the brand? The yellow one

I managed to do a couple of J walks today!

More viedeos with andy 🤙🤙🤙🔥

Is SMS 9 available yet? So hyped you and Aaron got together

Swing to fakie please!

"Mairéad, wanna film a short later" - too..... many...... jokes...... 🤯

Holy shit I needed this video

Can you still do freestyle tricks on a normal larger board? Or is freestyle like a completely different sport with different equipment needed?

Where did he find those Airwalks?????

I want to see those roller skate tricks too.

How is this channel not bigger

Legendary statement in the begining

AA brings the skate wisdom ⛑️🛹🙏

How do you get speed from monster walks?

Andy, what the hell do you have under the tail of that skinny skateboard? It seems to be another of your amazing ideas :)

Mike what pants are those. Swag pants

Sarah, sorta, as a guest. Noice.

I broke my ankle and cant ollie now because it hurt ... sou this is perfect

Woah, Sarah is tangently related to Andy

What board was Andy riding in the begginning? Is that a penny board!?

what are those amazing shoes?!

Very true..alot of tricks you got to be a bit angry and progessive agressive to manuever

Is there already a coconut wheelie tutorial?

that fingerwrap highfive was awkward af lol

The eagle

I comment to help statistics

Skateboard wizardry.... 😂

Yo but WHAT SHOES IS HE WEARING

Every trick is worth learning. Even bum boarding. #Fact

Whoops

According to the thumbnail this is gonna be a teen love story with his board.

Andy Anderson needs to be contacted to take part in a history of skateboarding documentary, he is clearly not only passionate about the sport but the history as well.

Those shoes look like old school airwalks

I don't Ollie coz [i love my deck too much and] cant afford a new deck so ive been milking no pop tricks to max, i started properly skating focusibg on my basic pivot set [which isn't one foot, also F*ck kickflips] and they're all so different, fakie backside is the funnest, nollie backside is the scarriest; i chicken out and split it to a 90 90 pivot and people think it looks great, i know people 😋

Judo Yo-yo Hop….

First

There are actually no rules in skateboarding, so like am i really doing it wrong? .....loveletters to skateboarding "style" episode

You have hit the nail on the head 😮.... The reason skate has become so chumped down and 75% slower than I walk 😂 is because new blood doesn't understand principle.... They don't want to take time to learn to actually ride the thing..... It's straight Ollie..... I want real man sk8 to come back.... Shaped decks and real wheels..... The gimmicks of skate need to go !!!😮😮😮😮

2 mins Into a 13 minvideo about tricks and zero skating has happened. You talk to much.

I never knew those were called yo-yo hops. I like to do yo-yo judo finger flips. I now have to try the yo-yo tre finger flip.
