I'm a fan of grabbing roast beef and a big slob 180 looks pretty good.

Here is my version:
Stalefish

I'm a fan of the old school stuff like Tail, Nose and a Big Method.

Tail NOT TINDY

NOSE

METHOD

Crail is a pretty tite grab

Crail is my favorite right now. If I could get myself around for a nuclear, that would be my favorite.

Joe,

I actually think grabs where the board is totally horizontal like your first picture, have a lot of style. Same with spins...the tightest spins, IMO, are either completely on axis or way off axis. Anything in between just looks sloppier to me. It seems to me, therefore, that the appearance that you are standing or spinning on some invisible table is something to strive for.

I like grabbing the tail in 50 degree weather

Salmon, I COMPLETLY agree.

Shawn, Nice pics.

Joe, That pic has MONDO style. Plus it's huge.

Ewan, What's wrong with tindy? I think it's SMOOOOTH.

What's the secret to grabbin stalefish anyway. My stalefish are very tailfish.

Jeremy - Thanks bro. When I do a Stalefish I try to push my back foot out as far as possible. Which puts the board in the perfect position for when you reach down for the grab. Hope that helps a little.

Joe - I have to agree with Jeremy, that is HUGE!

I like the roastbeef myself. Some shots of me doing a little shifty roastbeef grab.

What's a roastbeef with the front hand instead of the back??

Here you go J:

Trick Name: Roast Beef

Description: Rear hand heelside grab, between feet through the legs
Category: Intermediate
Point Value: 500
Tip on performing this trick: This one shouldn't be a hard one to learn. If you're getting good air and landing pretty consistently, the Roast Beef is a great trick to start progressing into board grabs. As you jump the wake, bring your knees to you chest, reach through your legs with your trailing hand and grab the middle of the board.

I like a big HS Method, a TS Crail, poked back Indy & that's pretty much it. Slob 3's is probably my favorite trick & I'm finally getting comfortable on Method Crows, they all feel really good.

What up Steve, the best shot I've seen of a Method Crow is of Tino Santori at the Ft. Worth Tour Stop. The photo credit goes out to Bill J. on this one.

I'm all about tweaked tail and stale fish grabs, poke it out as far and long as possible, and shifty slob/mutes are cool too, try to rotate almost 180 then bring it back

Jeremy - Thanks for posting that pic. I clicked on this thread and I was like "whoa, that's me!"

Randall's method or a Shifty Tail Grab are my favorites.

Wondered where you were. I always liked that pic when you had it as your profile pic. So when he said what's your favorite grab. I thought, Thane stalefish.
