Deck - the board part of the skateboard

Dude - A fellow skater, typically male though not always.  See also "Bro" and "Homie."

Fakie - A reversal of the skater’s usual stance, with his or her usual back foot in the lead position and vice versa. Not much of a trick in itself, but a fakie modifier makes a trick a bit more impressive, often confused with "Switch Stance" but much less natural looking.

Frontside - A rotation of the board in a direction putting the skater’s front toward the turn’s arc. Not a trick, but a modifier of a trick, "Frontside 180" for example; the opposite of "Backside."

Full Pipe - A full pipe is a piece of huge cement piping with a large diameter, often of ten feet or more. Skaters start at the bottom and gradually start getting higher and higher up the sides as they push back and forth. Pipe-riding is not so common anymore. A few notable full pipes are Toxic Land and Glory Hole.

Gnarly - A term meaning bad, horrible, or sketchy.

Goofy (stance)-To stand on skateboard facing left and push with left foot.

Grind - sliding on the edge of an object, often a rail, on a skateboard’s trucks instead of the wheels or deck.

Grindage- Good food, like pizza or tacos. Yum.
