What law of motion is it when you feel a force against the sole of your foot as you take a step forward?

Newton's 3rd law of motion states is basic terms that for every action there is an equal, but opposite reaction (if you push against a wall with force F, then the wall will push back with force -F). When you walk/run forward, you exert a force on the ground that goes diagonally down and backward. The equal, but opposite reaction is the ground exerting a force on your foot that is diagonally up and forward (exactly opposite that applied by your foot). This helps to propel you forward as you walk or run.

What springs are there around the house?

Almost anything that "pushes back" when you push. For example, a ball-point pen - the kind which you push to get the tip out and back in - has a spring to push the tip back up. I assume the keys on a computer keyboard have springs too; how else would they go back up? Similarly, a key-chain holder - the one that you can fasten to your pants - must have a spring to close the loop after you open it. The locks in your doors must also have springs.

Level out both feet (while in the air) and push down till your feet and your board hit the ground at the same time. Also after popping and sliding your foot, bring your knees to your chest and hopefully with lots of practice, you will learn how to ollie.
