Hey, I know there are other threads on how to Ollie, but I have some questions about style, and technique.
1) I've realized that some of the time I Ollie without having the tail actually touch the surface and pop. How does this even happen?
2) Also, I started trying to get pop by rolling the board back first and it seemed to help. Is this a helpful way to learn, that I can translate to rolling forward, or is it counterproductive?
3) Finally, I often notice that I'm pressing down really hard on the deck before I pop and I don't feel like it's helping my pop.

How can I correct these bad habits?

I've just been trying to clean up my ollies. I think I've corrected all of these problems and gotten a better consistency from watching the weakfingers tutorial and focusing on the pop before trying to do it all at once.
