I am a newbie to skateboarding and when I ollie i can get decent height but the back of my board always seems to start like a 180 rotation I land with my feet both in good possesion but the board is at like a 30 degree angle from what i started at. Help please

your probably turning your body when you ollie causing the rotaion. Try to keep your body straight and it should fix the problem.

Yeah, focus on keeping your shoulders straight over your board.
