Term

Grab

A deliberate hand hold on the board during a trick; hand, reach route, edge and contact region define identity.

GLOSSARY · Freestyle & trick grammar

A grab is holding the board with a hand in the air. Its name depends on which hand, which edge or end, and the route the hand takes — Indy, Melon, Method and many more. Grabs add style and stability to airs.

Context and distinction

A grab is the hold; a tweak is pushing the grabbed position further. Some grab names differ between sources, and the Bible keeps those differences visible.
