Safety Grab
Probably the easiest grab to throw. Simply take your right hand and grab under you're right binding on the outside of the ski. While this should be outrageously self-explanatory, here is a pic can be doubled by grabbing with both hands.

Next up is the Mute grab. This is done by crossing the skis, and using the right hand to grab the outside of edge of the left ski in front of the binding. Balance is often obtained by raising the left hand above the head. Not overly difficult and still very stylish. This pic shows the grab very well but with the hands switched.

The Japan grab is done by reaching your right hand behind your back and grabbing the inside edge of the left ski at or behind the tailpiece.

Critical grabs are very similar to japan grabs, except instead of being grabbed behind the binding, you grab in front of the binding. So you reach across your body, grab the inside of edge of the left ski with right hand, in front of toe piece. Look at the third and fourth step for best shot

Ok so these are the basics without getting into double grabs and such. Feel free to add something to the list, just search the media and find a good pic to go with it.
