American Sign Language: "surf"

 


SURF / surfing:


Below I'm showing using a flat-hand as the non-dominant hand for surf or surfing. I've noticed that the sign has evolved (particularly among surfers) to using a palm-down "H" hand as the non-dominant handshape -- which means the dominant hand's two downward pointing digits are together and not separated (think of a downward pointing "U" shape instead of a downward pointing "V" shape.  In all of the versions the dominant-hand thumb sticks out.

Use your left hand as the board and your right upside down "V" hand as your legs and make a very brief forward sliding movement then repeat the movement.
