nice work man! it shows very nice where you grab for a specific grab. maybe expand it and link some videos to the grabs. maybe add a few more common grabs like bluntgrab and your website is all set. haha

The "Nose and Tail" in the picture is an English Muffin. Grab the opposite nose/tail - Right hand to left ski and vice versa.

The "Double Japan" is called a Crouton

if i remember correct, a blunt is when you grab on the outside, opposite to the toxic grab which you grab on the inside

I allways called the double japan a "Japical" because thats what you get if you mix up Japan with the Critical grab. Seems logic to me.

Also the nose/tail is called Muffingrab in scandinavia.

Great job with this tho, really nice and going to be even better with videos!

nope, toxic is inside edge closer to the binding. tail is inside edge closer to the tail. blunt is outside edge closer to the tail. phil grab is outside edge closer to the binding

It would be sweet if you could colour the left hand/right hand grabs for the double grab bit, so you know which hand is going where

Apart from that it looks sick!

see sammy carlsons rodeo's, its essentially a high safety grab where you kick out the ski that hand that is grabbing: example: the very first shot in this video, also at 3:00,

You are also missing stalefish, tindy, and cuban. I'm not exactly sure what a cuban is but I know it exists.

You could put in a Cuban, a right handed tail grab to the left ski or vica versa.

Yuuup, a cuban grab is grabbing left tail with right hand behind your back while tails are still fully crossed (or vice versa)

I only have a link cause I'm on mobile but there is a perfect example of a Cuban grab in the second shot of this video. It's the welcome to the team video of Clayton villa and Sean Jordan by jibberish.

What you are calling a "bro-kang" is technically called a "critical"

Great job! Cool addition would be if the skis moved in to place according to the grab, like for a right hand mute the left ski would move across the right. I guess the pictures show that already, but it's just a thought I had.

nah man, critical grabs the inside edge of the opposite ski and pulls it to the same position, I can see where you would get confused
