Great explanation. Only the part about leveling the board in the air is a bit off. For a high and nice looking Ollie you have to use the forward movement and friction of the front foot to pull it straight in the air. You don't want to push down until you are ready to land. At least, that's how i experience it. It's such a automated process that it's hard for me to break down what i'm actually doing when i Ollie.
Aaron does a great job at breaking tricks down. The only thing I didn't like here was about pushing down with your front foot. Really you should be pushing into the nose to level the board, as pushing down is a great way to hurt your ankle.
ki11bunny The pushing is for if you're landing a simple ollie, although I will say you don't really do much pushing as you kind of rest your foot to hold the board's position midair. I don't think they were doing a full-length how to ollie higher video.
Amazingly this is what I needed to get my ollies down! I've been practicing ollies for about three weeks and couldn't do them consistently. But after watching this video, I went out and really hammered down the ollies. This was way more helpful to me then watching other youtube tutorials! Science ftw!
And so begins your lifelong journey of scrapes, bruises, sprains, bloodletting, hospital visits, dislocations, broken bones.....and that's with your safety equipment on.
this comment is too true, i have a dislocated shoulder, i had to have stiches in my knee and chin, i broke my elbow, and my shins are lumpy and bruised 24/7. but i wouldnt have it any other way
If you're gonna pick it up I have to let you know they got one part wrong. Instead of pushing your front foot down to level out the ollie you have to push it forward
+xyzd95 he honestly should of said to drag ur front up ward on the board right after the pop. But really u can go to a real skate tutorial on other channels
In the beginning of August I've discovered Braille Skateboarding channel. Now, near the end of August I'm seeing skateboarding even on SciShow. Nice :3
+Rafila The anus question worked after countless spamming, so why not this one? Well, I guess this one is not as funny, but there is a chance his persistence will prevail one day. And this question is far more fitting for scishow than anus hair. Who knows, maybe one of the patreons will see this and will be curious as well and request a video.
Some of the best methods for personally learning tricks was simply taking a seat between trick attempts and breaking everything down in my head. Without slowing down and trying to comprehend the physics behind the trick, I would've never been able to learn and consistently land tricks like Nollie Inward Heels, Nollie Backside Flips, Big Flips, Switch Heels, etc. However, the most mind-bending tricks came in the form of two that I only ever landed once: Hardflip and Nollie Laser Flip. Perhaps given more time, I could've consistently learned one-or both-of them. Now I'm in a wheelchair, paralyzed from the chest down (injury not quite skateboard-related), but I still love being in the presence of skateboarding-even occasionally teaching random skaters a trick or two!!
Great choice of video series!!! I used to skate a lot in high school, and I still do now and then just to get around. I was getting good at a few tricks at my peak, now when a car stops right on the crosswalk and I have to ollie onto the sidewalk it's a 50% chance I'll make it. Use it or lose it I guess
"the ground pushes back, sending the board flying into the air" I'm not so sure this part of the explanation (at 1:33) washes. The ground isn't going to accelerate the board into the air as that would require a net force, and since the normal force from the ground is by definition net zero (ignoring minuscule effects of concrete and wheel compression) there won't be any acceleration. I'm thinking the "flying into the air" bit is the result of pivoting hard against the back wheels, then the momentum of the board continues it's upward motion into the air.
Maybe it wasn't quite clear, but he does refer to "popping". When the front of the board rises into the air and the back pivots, at the last moment, the tail end of board makes contact with the ground. That final collision is what sends the board up into the air.
I think I see what you're saying but even that seems misleading. The collision doesn't push the board into the air, it just stops the rotation from continuing down in the back, forcing the momentum to take everything up. I'm splitting hairs and being pedantic, I know, but I'm of the impression these are details that tend to lead to incorrect understanding from people who don't have a deep understanding of basic physics yet.
At around 1:24 the word 'kicking' is used to describe a pop. I believe when people refer to a 'kick' in terms of an ollie, they mean the front foot moving up to catch the board.
Great video. I've been watching skateboarding vids recently and have been wondering about the physics of how they keep the board on their feet when jumping. This is a strangely timely video.
I think the more force you apply to the pop, the more control you have over torque, as the board is trying to rise higher. Basically example is, popping with enough force to ollie 2 feet high, but only letting the board rise up to 1ft. Try it! It will improve board control and consistency, especially aiming into grinds/slides
Rodney Mullen didn't invent the ollie, but he invented the "magic flip" aka the kickflip. The first ollie was invented/done by a vert skater named Alan Gelfand in 1978. Alan was nick-named "ollie" by the way he would air out of the bowls and pools without grabbing the board and thats how the trick was discovered.
My rather sarcastic point was that a flatland Ollie is a little different to a vert Ollie in execution. As Mullen never really claimed it as his own, credit was given to his inspiration, rather than giving the trick an entirely new name and taking credit himself, which could have happened when you think about it. Imagine if he just came out and said "I've invented this new trick, I call it the Mullen air!". Nobody would have argued at the time. Quite humble imo.
i just googled it. i give you credit about the flatground ollie. im not arguing. im just stating that first ollie ever was not mullen but i respect your post man!
This is all true, but I also find it useful to think of it like this. If you're not standing on the board, and you kick down on the tail, it's easy to see how kicking down on the tail hard enough will make the board bounce up in the air. An ollie works the same way, except that you're above the board when it happens. It seems counter-intuitive, because people think that you're standing on the board, which would prevent it from bouncing up, but that's not really the case. You begin jumping first, giving your body some upward momentum, so your weight isn't holding the board down. Then, on the way up, you kick down the tail making it bounce off the ground, and use your other foot to keep the board steady and flatten it out. When I hear people explaining how to ollie the always put too much emphasis on sliding the front foot up, when the emphasis should be on giving your body upward momentum BEFORE you kick the tail down.
it's funny, I'm currently learning how to skateboard and I was thinking, just today, wouldn't it be great if someone made a video on the physics of it. life is wonderful XD
I stopped skating when I got to the age when falling actually began to hurt. I remember bouncing off the ground and shrugging it off... now I bang my shin once and I'm done for the day! These days I just rewatch old skool skate vids and reminisce.
I was never able to do an Ollie, but I was using a crappy Wal-mart skateboard back when I was 10 years old so I guess that's why I never did any tricks lol
I talked to my boyfriend the other day saying that scishow should do skateboard physics cause I always wondered how it worked, and thou has granted my wish. Also, fact of the day, the international distress term "Mayday" was originated from the French word(s) "Venez m'aider" meaning 'come and help me',but the person who came up with the term, Frederick Mockford, was British. Was curious and looked it up today, thought to pass it on.
Oh yes. Watch how ruined the skateboarding industry becomes after a while. Sooner or later, people are going to complain about "cheated equipment" like if the board wasn't up to code. heh
I mean they got most of it, but the friction on the board past was a little wrong, you drag your foot up to straighten it out whilst its in the air, torqueing it straight, not making you jump higher necessarily
Slight correction, it is not actually the normal force that pushes the board up. You create torque on the board around the pivot point (the wheel) which then, because the skateboard can be seen as a solid object, moves the part of the skateboard on the the other side of the pivot up. This creates an angular momentum around the center of mass (com) of the board but also gives the com itself upward momentum. The upward momentum you create by pressing down past a pivot point that is not the com is what makes you keep going up. The only thing the normal force does is counteract that angular momentum you also created besides the upward momentum you really wanted. Bit nit picky I'm sorry but physics is a science :)
At what point exactly do you jump in the ollie? and at what point exactly do you pop the tail? I'm looking for a real detailed answer cause I understand HOW to ollie and I CAN ollie but I want to improve my ollie...
NOOO!!! why does this video have like 100k less views :( I loved this video, I mean I dont want scishow to become a skateboarding physics channel but this still was a cool video
I would like to see breakdowns of more tricks. I feel like skateboarding is so complex that to normal people they just can't comprehend what is happening, so they just ignore it. Hopefully in the Olympics skateboarding will finally get the respect it deserves.
i may be a nerd... because this explained the ollie better than anything and anyone i have ever encountered. i feel like i could do a prefect ollie right now.
So to pop an ollie you dont slam your back foot down because itll stop the board from coming up enough for your front foot to pull it up so instead you flick your back ankle down and the back foot is about a inch off the board by the time the tail pops
I can do a ollie on a skateboard I just never really knew the science behind it I kinda just went with whatever the internet says on how to do a ollie and I did one (I am guessing it's the same way with a fingerboard?)
As far as I'm concerned it's more magic than physic. I'd like a scishow episode on why some people have more physical coordination than other. It's not just a matter of practice.
It is about practice, but some people are better naturally because of genetics. Almost anyone can go to a gym and yoga classes to get stronger and gain more balance, but some people are genetically predisposed to gain those physical attributes more quickly, and/or have more of them naturally. It's just about the strength of your muscles and your sense of center of gravity.
Is that the beginnings of a moustache I see on your face??? Also very interesting physics video! Although I didn't get the part how you lift the board up...
I used to skate but now I have 3 missing teeth, a slightly misshapen nose and a scar from the outside corner of my eye to the bridge of my nose... I felt like I had to start listening to my body
Mikutai which time? Two teeth when I fell off a ledge I was trying to grind, the scar because someone else fell off and their board flew off the platform and into my eye and the nose cos I miss landed and my board came up and broke it. I was not very good lol
***** I know that's what happens, but I want to know how that happens. I also tried performing an Ollie after thinking I had the steps down and fell backwards breaking my tailbone. Couldn't get up for an hour. Going to keep trying though and actually move instead of standing still like I did for my first attemp.
You guys failed to mentioned the synchronized unweighing occurring across the joints of the body- something that does far more to propel you into the air than "pushing into the floor".

i c wat u did thar
lol
Top kek
But not as tricky as SSX Tricky.
Or run dmc tricky.
I C U P.
Thanks to how small modern science can make pinhole camera's.
Sick :)
Never thought I'd see you comment on a sci show video but here we are
ITS HIM ITS REALLY HIM
Yeah, It's nice to hear a scientific brake-down of thing's ya awready know, a different perspective, if you please.
Yooo Chris you should try to learn an ollie on your channel! XD
OMG MOIST

At least, that's how i experience it. It's such a automated process that it's hard for me to break down what i'm actually doing when i Ollie.
I would love to watch SciShow slowly divulge into the most scientific "how to skate" channel.
+Broken Wave haha I was gonna say something about Braille. You gotta get Aaron Kyro. A professional skateboarder from the San Fransisco Bay Area.
I skate regularly, and I can advocate for this.
Aaron does a great job at breaking tricks down. The only thing I didn't like here was about pushing down with your front foot. Really you should be pushing into the nose to level the board, as pushing down is a great way to hurt your ankle.

EvilNeon I know they were not doing a full in depth but that step is likely to get people hurt if they follow it.
I want to see hank trying it
yes this needs to happen
Do you want him dead ? xd
+Kat4Life Perhaps. :3

Yep yep yep!!
I skateboard for harambe
stale
why ppl suddenly got reminded of 3 moths old event?
+Zenon Malinowski Harambe is forever
Tricks out for Harambe
+JayCee lmao
Breakdown the science of all Rodney Mullen's tricks
well hes a wizard
it's not a trick. it's a sorcery
that would be awesome but a bit long
So basically they'd break down what it is to be a robot?
So basically all tricks?
I guess Sci show knows I been watching too much Braille skateboarding.
Definitely check out skateboarding made simple
You won't be disappointed
Hi I'm Aaron Kyro and I'm a sponsored skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay area...
+Duo Ren from the San Francisco Bay area
My name is Micheal Aranda and I'm a professional skateboard scientist from the San Francisco Bay area. :D
Only if it teaches skateboarding better than anything else out there.
Amazingly this is what I needed to get my ollies down! I've been practicing ollies for about three weeks and couldn't do them consistently. But after watching this video, I went out and really hammered down the ollies. This was way more helpful to me then watching other youtube tutorials! Science ftw!
I like this type of instructional science vid! I'd love to see some with other niches, like the science behind graffiti/spray can technique!
It's nice that you explain everything so both adults and kids can understand as well as people who know nothing about skateboarding, thanks!
Reminds me of my old skater days...
I wanted to see Michael demonstrate the ollie himself.
I bet he skates
Yeah, I bet he's the greatest at it. Oh, Michael. Hmmm.
Willy T uhmm
And so begins your lifelong journey of scrapes, bruises, sprains, bloodletting, hospital visits, dislocations, broken bones.....and that's with your safety equipment on.

That description, lol. Pretty accurate. That's why I prefer snowboarding. It's a little more forgiving when it comes to boo-boos.
The beautiful science of skateboarding. Now us nerds can finally learn how to use a board.Thanks!
If you're gonna pick it up I have to let you know they got one part wrong. Instead of pushing your front foot down to level out the ollie you have to push it forward

Pretty cool that sci show is talking about skateboarding. It's nice to see my two main passions collide and bond.
thanks for this video, been subbed for a year or two and been skating for much longer. nice little combo
In the beginning of August I've discovered Braille Skateboarding channel. Now, near the end of August I'm seeing skateboarding even on SciShow. Nice :3
Can you do one on cerebral aneurysms? I had one rupture at 19 and would love to learn more!
Stop spamming them.

Who knows, maybe one of the patreons will see this and will be curious as well and request a video.
This was great! Thank you!
Thank you for finally explaining this
As a skater, hearing the most basic trick explained in such an in-depth and detailed manner is quite humorous.
I've honestly wondered this since middle school when I tried to do it....and couldn't. Glad I finally stumbled onto the answer.....20 years later xD
Please make more I always pondered this stuff in truly scientific terms
This video may well become responsible for more scraped knees, damaged shins and broken bones than anything I can imagine.

science and skateboarding, two great things for me
please do more of this I've been waiting for a channel to do this
I approve of this content!! Do a video to explain all the basic tricks!
been skating for 10 year always just assumed it was a gift from the creators, now I know it's physics

Holy cow! New respect for skaters.

I'm a skateboarder AND I LOVE THIS
such respect for this ep

I needed this video a decade ago lol.
I get the feeling this video was made in part due to Braille's insanely popular glass skateboard video.
maybe, that video git like 20m views I think, hopefully people learn shredding is a sick sport
I wish that thing was able to have held up for a bit but I expected it to go boom!
it's funny, I'm currently learning how to skateboard and I was thinking, just today, wouldn't it be great if someone made a video on the physics of it. life is wonderful XD
Im happy that they were able to make a skateboarding video without it being cringey
You actually managed to make skateboarding sound cool and fun. Go, science!
But, why are there scooter kids around my skatepark?
Asking the real questions i see
Ahh skateboarding and science, my two favourite things, I rate this video 10/10
I stopped skating when I got to the age when falling actually began to hurt. I remember bouncing off the ground and shrugging it off... now I bang my shin once and I'm done for the day! These days I just rewatch old skool skate vids and reminisce.
I was never able to do an Ollie, but I was using a crappy Wal-mart skateboard back when I was 10 years old so I guess that's why I never did any tricks lol
I had a skateboard that I found in someone's garbage.
Same here.
skating on a Walmart board is like trying to use a paper bag as a condom, it just is annoying
I really could have used this video when I was in middle school. Ollies are hard.
I have never been able to Ollie and I literally just watched this video and went outside and did it
I talked to my boyfriend the other day saying that scishow should do skateboard physics cause I always wondered how it worked, and thou has granted my wish.
Also, fact of the day, the international distress term "Mayday" was originated from the French word(s) "Venez m'aider" meaning 'come and help me',but the person who came up with the term, Frederick Mockford, was British. Was curious and looked it up today, thought to pass it on.
You know its gonna be good when it starts with a gnarly pun.
Tokyo 2020 Olympic will introduce skateboarding right?
Unfortunately that is supposed to be a thing
Oh yes. Watch how ruined the skateboarding industry becomes after a while. Sooner or later, people are going to complain about "cheated equipment" like if the board wasn't up to code. heh
I mean they got most of it, but the friction on the board past was a little wrong, you drag your foot up to straighten it out whilst its in the air, torqueing it straight, not making you jump higher necessarily

My 13 year old self would REALLY loved to have seen this video.
i may be a nerd... because this explained the ollie better than anything and anyone i have ever encountered. i feel like i could do a prefect ollie right now.
Skateboarder and big fan of the show
DO A MINI SERIES ON THIS
So to pop an ollie you dont slam your back foot down because itll stop the board from coming up enough for your front foot to pull it up so instead you flick your back ankle down and the back foot is about a inch off the board by the time the tail pops
finally a good tutorial 😌👍🏼
Dope science, dude!
when i do chin ups and pull ups is the pressure applied to the door bar only by my weight or it has more when you go pull with your arms?
"fall down and break their wrists." that's great
Heyyyyy just the video I needed
at mid air why is the centre of the board the pivot shouldn't the pivot be your back leg?
I can do a ollie on a skateboard I just never really knew the science behind it I kinda just went with whatever the internet says on how to do a ollie and I did one (I am guessing it's the same way with a fingerboard?)
As a skateboarder this almost makes me feel like I'm doing science xD
As far as I'm concerned it's more magic than physic. I'd like a scishow episode on why some people have more physical coordination than other. It's not just a matter of practice.

It's just about the strength of your muscles and your sense of center of gravity.
this is perfect timing cause I'm practicing my ollie
I wanted to ask for a bmx version because I ride one, but realized it's almost the same to make a new video about it.
Is that the beginnings of a moustache I see on your face???
Also very interesting physics video! Although I didn't get the part how you lift the board up...
Still no Olivia huh?!
what was the last video she was in?
Spoder mon do you know where Olivia is?
What a coincidence im getting a skateboard tmrw :D
Your birthday?
Just a new board or you starting to learn?
Don't give up!
Starting to learn too! But no place to skate with overprotective parents.
starting to learn ;)

joesoly1234 what happened??
Mikutai which time? Two teeth when I fell off a ledge I was trying to grind, the scar because someone else fell off and their board flew off the platform and into my eye and the nose cos I miss landed and my board came up and broke it. I was not very good lol
I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW THIS!!! How do they always know?!
After watching this video, I feel I can master the ollie in one try.
Same, I'm starting out but don't get the physics of it all. I guess practice makes it better.
***** I know that's what happens, but I want to know how that happens. I also tried performing an Ollie after thinking I had the steps down and fell backwards breaking my tailbone. Couldn't get up for an hour. Going to keep trying though and actually move instead of standing still like I did for my first attemp.
Can ye do one of these on the mountain bike bunnyhop please
Hi guys, I have a question.
Why does bread gets hard like a stone in long contact with air?
Thanks. ; )
mind blown!
weird that this came out right as im trying to get back into skateboarding and re learn tricks :D
Yo, you could do a long video about how to kick a soccer ball properly, and how to add curve to it, etc... That would be pretty dope.
Or football, don't get butthurt.
FUTBOL
BASEBALL
Deez balls
physics of skate board that's awesome
Im so early to learn how to ollie even though I don't have a skateboard...
I have not done skateboarding for years and i do miss it, still got my board put away
I feel bro but I wasn't one of the lucky guys that could go pro I suck major dick and skating never paid the bills :(
You guys failed to mentioned the synchronized unweighing occurring across the joints of the body- something that does far more to propel you into the air than "pushing into the floor".
