Trick: Method

Description: Front hand grab on heelside edge in front of your front foot.


How to perform this trick: When learning the Method, it's best to approach it from a heeiside edge since you are grabbing the board with your front hand. To initiate the grab, bring your board up bending only at the knees. Once you're comfortable doing the Method grab and want to add some style, try this: Tweak out the board by extending your back leg out and tucking your front knee down. This keeps the base of the board exposed to the direction you are traveling (the shore) as well as keeping it parallel to the water.
