1)Approach the curb in the same way you would do for a 50-50, put your feet in the ollie position, but put your front foot further up the board than usually, for example on the front truck bolts. This will help you make to nose and front truck connect more easily with the grinding surface.

2)Ollie so that you are just above the grinding surface, lean forwards and apply plenty of pressure to your front foot so that the nose and front truck only connect with the grinding surface. The back truck should be raised off the grinding surface.

3)Keep a lot of your weight on the front foot so that the nose and front truck are in constant connection with the grinding surface and you continue to grind.

4)Try to force the board along the object with your front foot and lean forward so that you do not come to a standstill. When you finish the grind, set your back truck down on the curb and pivot on your back truck to get off the curb.

5)Roll away with a smile on your face.
