Method grab

In boardsports, the method grab is a tweaked form of the melon grab, where the rider grabs the heel side of the board between the bindings or at the front binding with the front hand.[1]

Execution

To perform the method grab, the rider will begin by rotating their board 90 degrees to their backside (facing opposite the direction of travel). During or upon the rotation, the rider will grab the center of their board on the heel side. The rider may now revert to a normal position and land.
