Date difference

In this article, the maneuver is dated to 1976, but in the Ollie article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ollie_%28skateboarding%29 ) it is dated to 1978. The latter has citation, but even the cited pages differ. The first (Merriam-Webster dictionary) says the term itself was used in 1979. The second source, mumblemagazine, says the trick came in 1977. Which date is correct?

Ollie

The article lists its invention and accreditation to Gelfand, but it doesn't show how the term "ollie" came to be. Who started calling it that? When? Who coined the term? -- 65.92.247.96 (talk) 16:15, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

Likely AI generated material

Hi - I added the AI generated tag here, as edits like this (the text of which largely persists to the current version) display many tells of potential LLM use and thus need review for sourcing, tone, etc. Gnomingstuff (talk) 05:43, 17 September 2025 (UTC)
