I'm 13 and just recently started skating and I've been practicing my ollie and I cant seem to land it. Sometimes I cant even get a good pop but when I do I cant even land flat on the board. Any tips?

I'd say make sure you can balance on the board really good before you try to ollie. Then when you are trying it go with the board when you pop don't kick it out in front of you and try to jump on it. Best advice i can give other than directing you to a trick tips video.

keep your shoulders straight or parallel with the deck
wherever you pop the highest when you ollie, try to bring your knees up to your chest while keeping a crouch position..... just try and go big with ollie all the time and you'll get em soon. and if you cant go as fast as you want on your board yet, that means you gotta bomb some hills and get used to the feel of riding
