if the board is slipping out in front of you then youre leaning back ttoo much.

Also, Ollieing isnd simply jumping up with both feet. you hav e to pull up with your front foot first, then extend your back foot and use the board as a spring to pop you into the air. You get much higher ollieing than you do just jumping up with both feet.
