[edit] Board Grabs

Board Grabs names

Board grabs are common tricks performed while a rider is jumping by grabbing the board in a number of positions with either hand. Each grab has a different name dependant on which part of the board is grabbed and with which hand it is grabbed by. Rear hand grabs are known as Crail, Indy, Trindy, Tail, Talefish and Stalefish; while front hand grabs are known as Slob, Mute, Seatbelt, Melon, Lien and Nose.

A number of grabs can also be combined into one trick. A rider may perform a tail grab going to indy, where they move their rear hand from the back of the board to the middle the toe side edge.
