Ollie Down Stairs
This is pretty easy but if you are a beginner and don't have good board control or very solid Ollie you might end up falling a lot. Start with a curb if you haven't done that before. Then try to find a 2 set. (Set is what you call a stair case in stead of ten stairs you say 10 set). If you can't find a 2 set try to find a 3 or 4. My first set Ollie was a four. Then I did 3 then 5 then 2. When you start your set won't be too high or long so you don't need much speed and you have almost no chance of hurting yourself. As soon as you start going to 6 and higher sets you will start to need speed. When you land try to keep your weight on your back truck. Try to land with both feet over there trucks. That way your landing is cleaner smoother and you don't break your board. Sets are a lot easier than gaps. You know if you have done a 6 a 7 is only 6 inches or so higher. If you have a gap you have no way to think of how big it is compared to another set. You have to guess.

Good luck!
