Skateboarding trick
The ollie is a skateboarding trick where the rider and board leap into the air without the use of the rider's hands. It is the combination of stomping, also known as popping, the tail of the skateboard off the ground to get the board mostly vertical, jumping, and sliding the front foot forward to level out the skateboard at the peak of the jump. The ollie is a fundamental skill in skateboarding. Ollies are necessary to leap onto, over, or off of obstacles. As most flip tricks depend on it, the ollie is often the first skill to be learned by a new skateboarder and typically takes considerable practice to learn.

In 1978, Alan Gelfand, who was given his nickname "Ollie" by Scott Goodman, learned to perform frontside no handed aerials in bowls and pools using a gentle raising of the nose and scooping motion to keep the board with the feet. There are numerous references to Alan Gelfand's ollie, most notably pictures in the 1970s skateboarding magazine Skateboarder. Jeff Tatum is credited as the first person to perform a backside ollie in a bowl, which he initially named a "JT air". Both ollies were invented around the same time and it is unclear if the backside or frontside was done first, but Gelfand's frontside got the most initial media attention. An April 1981 issue of Thrasher notes that the vert ollie was quickly adapted to flatground use, observing that "skaters now hop effortlessly from street to sidewalk with just a tap of the tail." In 1982, while competing in the Rusty Harris contest in Whittier, California, Rodney Mullen debuted an ollie on flat ground, which he had adapted from Gelfand's vertical version by combining the motions of some of his existing tricks. Mullen used a "see saw" motion, striking the tail of the board on the ground to lift the nose, and using the front foot to level the board in mid air. While Mullen was not initially impressed with his flat ground ollie, and did not formally name it, the trick is now considered to have transformed the practice of skateboarding. Mullen himself realized it opened up a second, elevated plane on which to perform tricks, stating that "Skating might easily have petered out due to lack of progress if nobody had invented this trick." Rodney won the Rusty Harris contest, was afterwards asked by many riders to demonstrate the trick, and later in the year it would appear with the name "Ollie pop" as a "trick tip" in the skateboarding magazine Thrasher. Increasing the friction of the board's surface through the use of higher grit deck tape would thus greatly increase performance, as would the development of the skill to more quickly and energetically slide one's foot along the board.

The highest unofficial ollie was 46.1 inches (117.0 cm) performed by Jack Asani at Hyde park, Sydney, Australia on the 4th of June 2023 in a small event held by Integrity Skateboard company. The highest official flat ground ollies are generally performed in ollie contests. The highest preferred stance ollie was from the ground, performed by Aldrin Garcia. The highest switch stance ollie was , performed by Gavin Caperton. The Guinness World Record for the greatest number of consecutive ollies is held by David Tavernor of Norwich, United Kingdom, who successfully performed 323 ollies on 23 August 2021. David beat the record despite being diagnosed with arthritis in 2015, winning a £5 bet with a professional comedian in doing so.

Switch Ollie: an ollie performed in the stance opposite of a rider's normal stance. Fakie Ollie: an ollie done while riding backwards and in a rider's normal stance. Invented by Tony Montalvo. Nollie (short for "nose ollie"): an ollie executed by popping the nose of the board while the rider is in their normal stance and moving forward. The rider reverses the roles of the two legs so that the front foot pops the nose to the ground, and the rear foot lifts and guides the tail. It can be described as a Switch Fakie Ollie.
