Not all skaters do it for the tricks. Some just use their boards for transportation.

If you're standing on a skateboard whilst in motion, you're skateboarding.

What if an ollie is all you can do??

You are a skater...just a beginner.

You become a skater when your board becomes your best friend. You become a skater when all you think about is skating and when you're not skating, you wanna be and when you are skating, you think of nothing but skating. You become a skater when SKATEBOARDING becomes YOUR LIFE whether you can do tricks or not...skateboarding isn't just about showing off and being cocky about it. Skateboarding is a freaking way of life.

Can you? And that's not why i said all that. I'm working on my ollie..I just gotta commit.

Obviously. Why would I make this post if I, myself couldn't ollie? It's really not that hard bro. I skate like once every 2 weeks and I don't even consider myself a skater and I can still do a tre.

I wanna learn to ollie onto and over objects though which is a thought scary as hell for me.

Don't be scared then man. You gotta remember what's the worst that can happen to you? You might get a bruise or cut...but those chances are low. Take your chances and don't be afraid so when you do fail you can see how much harder you need to strive..that implies to every aspect of life :)
