You're tryin to ollie like a wakeskate, you gotta slide your foot and not just lift the board with your foot.
P.S. Who's the hottie?

| It sucks because im the opposite of most people wakeskating, it seems most people have a skateboarding background. so i need to slide my front foot foreward more?

vance, Slide your foot forward more, and the one thing that a lot of people overlook is tucking your knees to your chest.

Im no skateboarding expert myself, but I don't think your back foot is suppose to come off that far. I think the tail of the board should rise with your back foot, or atleast close to it.
But I could be completely wrong.

| your backfoot isnt supposed to come off so suck that up when you slide your front foot forward and you dont have to bend so far down before you ollie

A good way to work on your technique is ollieing over stuff. Motionless ollies are pretty useless. Set up another skate deck or stack some scrap wood up and try that. It will force you to slide your front foot more in order to get the tail up
