A 5-0 is basically a manual while grinding. Want to learn how to pull off this totally rad trick? Read on!

Steps

  1. 1
    Start by practicing your ollies until you're pretty good. You don't need massive height. An inch or two should be decent.
  2. 2
    Find a low rail to start on.
  3. 3
    Ride straight up to the rail.
  4. 4
    Do an ollie, but only land the back trucks on the rail.
  5. 5
    Grind it to the end.
  6. 6
    Slide off of the end.
  7. 7
    Practice, practice, practice! Then enjoy your cool new grind.


Tips

  • Have fun!
  • Avoid doing this like a robot; move fluently like you're really skating.
  • Make sure to tighten your trucks so you can maximize your ollie's height and grind hard without them falling off.
  • When you're coming off the rail, just push forward a bit to land it. It's really easy.
  • Practice landing on the rail correctly before doing the grind.

Warnings

  • Don't get mad if you don't get it right away. It took me two years to learn how to ollie.
  • Don't let your board go flying away when you ollie up or dismount.
