As you can see in the video, I ride a goofy stance on my board - I can pop the tail, I can raise the nose, and it's alot less rocketed than my previous ollies.

My only issue and where I'm stumped is how to bring the tail higher to level out my board? I know I mainly have to get out of the way of the board to raise the tail and nose, but it seems that even while I'm out of the way, the board can't level out. I also struggle to bring my right (front) foot in to my left knee and raise it, any pointers? Surely theres got to be some metaphor that might help me understand this better

Another issue you can see is my balance, which largely has to do with the back bushings unfortunately being broken (bought a prebuilt off amazon)

Is this also a good enough ollie to clear most curbs?

1. NJPAC (Founded by both Lawrence P. Goldman and Barton Myer from New York and Virginia)

2. Newark Penn Station (Designed by architectural firm McKim, Mead & White - Directed by William Mitchell Kendall from New Hampshire)

3.Newark Mueseum of Art (Founded by John Cotton Dana from Vermont)

4.The Cathedral Basilica Of the Sacred Heart (Founded by Michael Augustine Corrigan from New York)

5. Branch Brook Park (Built by the Olmsted Brothers, both from New York)

While branch has some of the best views of the Cathedral and atmosphere the infrastructure (and lack thereof) diminishes some of that atmosphere.

1. Sidewalk abruptly cuts off past the restrooms and turns into a dirt/gravel path, becomes next to impossible to walk along after rainfall just under the bridge

2. Parts of trees have seemingly fallen off and obstructed some steps of the park

3, 4 and 6 exhibit the same issues as 1, where as 3 completely loses any path and becomes a dirt road, terrible after rainfall.

5. Parts of the sidwalk near the lake have been split apart with pvc piping visible, definite tripping hazard.

Thankfully most of the week has had dry conditions but after rainfall the deeper more neglected parts of the park become more difficult to navigate. The thought going through my head most is why the county hasnt properly done work for these pathways? We know they're working on an improved building by the basketball courts on Clinton ave. is there a preservation act stopping the county from paving any new or exsisting roads in the park?

Likely making a part two for the upper areas of branch in the next few day's

You can see at first I try to figure out how to pop the board with my weaker leg, as I ride goofy style, I'm doing pretty good at raising my foot to lift the nose but I'm struggling at getting my left foot to raise up after I jump and lift the nose.

Or, I just struggle to either keep my back foot on the board which I fixed after this recording by sending my back foot down and then back when I try to jump and lift the nose,

I also struggle to raise my body up to high, which might have to do with holding onto the table parallel to my shoulders?

Pointers appreciated!
