Trick: Stalefish



Description: Rear hand grab on heelside edge in between your feet, while reaching behind your back leg (this is like Melan with your back hand).
The Stalefish looks great and can be approached from either the toeside or heelside edge, since you're grabbing the board with your back hand.

How to perform this trick: When you are at the highest point of your wake jump, reach down and grab your board behind your back leg and in between your feet. Because you grab the Stalefish in between your legs, it is a versatile grab. It gives you the option to Tweak or Poke the board in almost any direction. The most common way to do this trick is with your back leg Tweaked out toward the direction that you are going, and with your front knee tucked into your chest.
