So recently ive been ollieing stuff a lot and ive noticed that i have a really sketchy ollie that messes me up a lot, like i do some type of stupid ollie where it is a high enough ollie and all but what happens is on the way down the nose of my board dives down faster than the tail so i land really weird. any advice on how to stay even as i come back down?

This tends to happen, when A, your either sliding your foot too much, and you drive the nose down, or B, you jump up more than you should, so when you slide your foot, you slide more than you should, B is a cause of A. Try to avoid both. But yea, even out too, because that could be it, more probably actually.

i'd say
A. make sure that when you slide your foot up the board and down slightly, make sure your back foot gets back on , so that it'll level out better.
B. try not to slide your foot as much, maybe you're sliding it all the way to the nose and then leveling out, causing you to "nose dive"
C. it's possible that you just need to pop more, sometimes if you don't really pop well, when you level out, it just doesn't work :)
hope i helped dude
Thanks a lot for the advice guys i think i am probably sliding my front foot too far forward so i will work on that some more.
