The Manual

The manual is probably the first trick you should try.  You want to have your front foot just behind the nails and back foot on the start of the tail where it dips.  Next you have to lean back very slightly and put pressure on your back foot and the front will rise.  DO NOT let the back of the board hit the ground or you will slide and slow down and often bail.

Finishing the manual jest requires you to lean forward and push your front foot down until the wheels hit the ground

If you get good at this try and ollie into a manual.
