I can't. My ollies are only like 2 feet, like Vance, I can pop shuvs higher than I can straight up ollie. Something about the flow of it.

the only reference i have is when i gapped the front of a carolina skiff that was like 1 1/2 ft off the water and i got like 2 ft above it. it was like 4 ft wide

The Pavement 3.6,

I just realized what you wrote in your first post. no offense, but i doubt you can ollie 4.2 ft. Maybe off a roller or something.

I measure how high i ollie by how far i can ollie over the odub turtles. Very Happy

i too could ollie over a 4.2 ft high stick if the stick was 3 ft under water.

i am seriously doubting 4.2ft high ollie out of water in the flats. that's like ollieing over some little kids head.

i can ollie only about a foot (i suck). and like some other peple have said i can shuvit higher than i can ollie. and not to rag on you pavement 3.6 but i doubt you can hit a 4.2 foot ollie, but if you can then you should definetley go for the highest ollie contest cuz i think i heard that aaron reed won it with a 4.5 foot ollie, but i could be really wrong.

alright since you guys doubt me ill tell you how i do it and you can try it yourself. and the explaination will be sloppy so dont criticize me if you cant understand it or do it. i will see if my mom will let me take the camera next time out. alright just ride along and the kinda of push down on your back foot but not like an ollie slowly and forcefuly then drag your feet up like your trying to kick your feet out in front of you like in the above crappy picture i drew. while your doing this kind of relax your leg where your board starts to come back up to level then while your nose is coming out of the water ollie just like you normaly would except your dragging your board up and trying to make it parallel with your body if you were just riding. I no it sounds like major BS but try it. im not great at flip tricks maybe im just good at ollieing maybe its just my thing. dont believe me its ok with me i dont believe some bull people say on here.
