So, I'm guessing that "hanging ten" is where you get out on the front of the board?

Growing up 1,000 miles from an ocean, I never learned anything about surfing.

Incidentally, in the park where I skate laps, I'm seeing a lot of new-fangled electric scooter and skateboard contraptions lately.*

Some of these guys seem to have excellent surfing and/or snowboarding skills.

We also have long boarders out there who can keep pace with me at 12-15 mph-- using nothing but leg power.

"Hang ten" is surf slang from BITD for having all ten toes out over the front edge of a longboard, as the woman so perfectly demonstrates.
I have never done it.
