Does this grab have a name? If not I'm naming it.

It's really not even very hard, but I started doing it over the weekend at A-basin and I don't think I've heard a name for it.

It's just one hand on the inside egde of the tail and the other hand on the outside edge, a little behind the boot.

Not like tru tail, and I was doing it with skis crossed, so it was like a toxic with an extra hand on the outside of the ski.

seatbelt is on the nose. like right hand on left ski, outside edge.
So your grab would be left hand on left tail, inside edge, and right hand  on left tail outside edge too?

I've heard the name tail wrap before, but no it doesn't really have an official name from what I know. But I can tell you it's not gonna be called the denver grab that's terrible. Maybee if you where the only guy doing it you could name it that but there's a bunch of people doing it. Personnally I don't mind the name tail wrap, it's not incredibly gay and it acctually describes the grab

Yeah, that looks like it.

I'll have to work out my own variation of it, but that's the basic idea right there.

yeah you explained the same as I explained, but on the safety. I explained it a little bit radder, ferrer on the nose, but I thought of the same. we should combine our posts on that one
