1. Approach your target obstacle at a slight angle. Have your feet and body in position to perform an Ollie.

2. Pull an Ollie to get your board above the obstacle. As you travel upward, turn so that the board will land, straddling the rail.

3. Land on the middle of the board with knees bent and arms out to help with your balance. Keep the deck level with the ground as you move forward.

4. When you travel off the end of the obstacle, twist your body to drag the front of your board to point forward. Land and roll away.

1. Get low as you roll along backside and set up to perform a Nollie move.

2. Snap the nose of your board down nice and hard. As you start to pull the Nollie, twist your hips and shoulders around.

3. Stay crouched throughout the turn. This will help you to guide the board and to absorb the impact of landing.

4. Keep turning as you're in midair. Your legs and hips guide the board around.

5. Try not to lean too much and look to nail a landing on all four wheels. Your board should be pointing forward so you can roll away.

1. As you roll forward, push your front leg and foot down the nose. This sends the tail of your board up.

2. With the weight off you back foot, drag it up to the tail as you jump up off your front foot. Your board should rise.

3. Let the nose of your board and your front foot rise so that the board levels out. Get your feet planted before landing.

1. Get into your regular Ollie position but as you start to crouch, wind up your body by turning your shoulders back.

2. As you pull the Ollie, unwind by swinging your arms and shoulders and pulling your front leg around in the direction of your planned turn.

3. As the board levels out in the air, use your feet and legs to help guide the board around its turn. Your back foot should push forward, your front leg should pull back.

4. Land on all four wheels with the tail of your board now pointing forward. You should be able to roll away.

1. Get rolling and put your back foot on the tail. Your front foot should be between the middle and the front trucks.

2. Push the tail down hard onto the floor and take all the weight off the front foot. Jump your back foot up and forward.

3. Lift your knees as you continue to drag your front foot to the board's nose. Drag your front foot up to the nose as soon as you lift your back foot. The dragging and lifting actions help suck the board up with your jump. Keep your body over the board.

4. Control the board with your feet to level out in the air. Aim to land on all four wheels at the same time. Crouch as you land to absorb the impact.

1. Move your back foot to the tail and your front foot to the middle.

2. Press gently down on the back of the board and lift the nose. Twist your hips to turn the nose of your board.

3. Get some weight over the nose to bring it down. Repeat the move to twist the other way.

4. Repeat kickturning to the left and right to perform a tic-tac.

Pushing off is how you get moving:

1. Place your front foot on the board, just behind the front trucks. Put your rear foot on the ground, next to the board.

2. Kick your rear foot backward in a smooth movement to get moving. Use your arms to help keep your balance on the board.

3. As your rear foot completes its kick, twist your front foot so that it lies across the board. Bring your back foot onto the board and get into your stance. 

When there could be a head or spinal injury, protect the head and neck from any movement. Head or neck movement could result in life-long disability or death. Adjust your first aid to this situation as:

1. As soon as you see there might be a head or spinal injury, tell the casualty not to move.

2. Once you have consent to help the casualty, steady and support the head and neck, firmly support head in the position found. Then, assess responsiveness.

3. If there is a bystander to help, show them how to support the head and neck so you can continue your assessment. Tell the bystander to keep elbows firmly supported on thighs or ground.

4. Continue your assessment - check the ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation). If the casualty is unresponsive, check breathing in the position found before opening the airway. If there is no breathing, open the airway with the head-tilt chin lift and check breathing again.

5. If a second bystander is available, show them how to steady and support the feet to prevent movement.

6. Keep the head and neck supported (and the feet if possible) while giving further first aid until handover to medical help, or until the casualty is completely immobilized on a long spine board.
