Term
Hand Drag
GLOSSARY
In a typical example, a rider spins a backside 360 off the knuckle of a jump and reaches out so the hands touch the snow for a moment, without interrupting the rotation. FIS lists Hand Drag (code “Hd”) as a trick element for big air, halfpipe and slopestyle.
Context and distinction
A hand drag is momentary contact; a handplant puts the rider's weight on the hand. FIS gives no written description, so competition usage may be more specific.

Hand Drag
The existing inventory retains this name, but the original material does not establish a complete source-specific mechanical definition.
Preparation and setting
Retain the original named card and its source convention. No complete independent practice assignment is inferred.
Known phases / unresolved execution
- Read the exact original definition and its limitations.
- Identify feature, stance, contact, axis and exit where supported.
- Keep unknown properties explicit.
- Use related established components as background knowledge.
- Obtain a full reviewed target-specific instruction before assigning reproduction practice.
Learning and practice
Available material provides naming or partial understanding. A complete learning pathway for this exact target remains open.
Errors, limits and corrections
Do not turn a coding-list name or challenge title into a guessed movement. Similar spelling and compound wording do not establish aliases.
Observable checks
Original identity is retained; unresolved mechanics and missing instruction are explicit.

editorial review notes
Official coding-list name only. Classification and mechanics remain pending; a code does not establish an independent teachable trick.
