The Nose Stall There are two ways to do the nose stall: Ride towards a curb, do a manual and lift your front wheels in the air. As you approach the object, try to get your nose a little bit higher than level with the lip of the object. As your nose gets onto it, apply pressure to the nose and take pressure off of the tail and "stall" on the nose. Now, keeping the pressure on the nose, nudge your way off of the object (i.e. slide the nose off of the curb). Land on all four wheels back on the asphault. Now for the cool way. First ride slowly towards the obstacle, probably a curb if you are learning. Keep your back foot like you would for the ollie. Keep your front foot like you would for the ollie also except move it forward so it is on two of the bolts (close to the nose). When you get close to the object, maybe a foot or two, ollie! Land with your nose on the curb and simultaneously apply pressure. Stall. When you want to come off, slide your nose off and land on the ground.
