Grab means taking one hand from the handle and holding the board in the air during an ollie, wake jump, or kicker hit.

Jump first, bring the board up to your hand, then release and land with the handle close. Do not drop your chest toward the board.

Progression note: start with a tap or short grab on small air before adding grabs to 180s, kickers, or larger jumps.
