Bussanova<\/strong>: \/buss-a-nova<\/em>\/ Muriel wasn’t very adept at subway surfing but thoroughly enjoyed it. When she shamelessly bumped into other riders she would laugh and sing “blame it on the bussanova” (her latin syle of shimmy) Etymology:<\/em> bus + bosa nova Created by:<\/em> Jabberwocky.<\/p>\n

Metroshuffle<\/strong>: \/met-ro-shufl<\/em>\/ Miranda seemed to enjoy the rocking and jolting of the subway as she rode to and from her work and outings and had perfected a metroshuffle for her own entertainment as well as providing smiles for her fellow passengers. Etymology:<\/em> Blend of ‘metro’ (subway) and ‘shuffle’ (to scrape the feet over the floor in dancing) Created by:<\/em> Mustang.<\/p>\n

Trolleyollie<\/strong>: \/tr\u00c3\u00a4l\u00c4\u201c \u00c3\u00a4l\u00c4\u201c<\/em>\/ Gidget loved her ride to work. She treated the bus like her personal pipeline. Her gnarliest move was a switchfoot trolleyollie. Her only wipeout happened when she tried to hang ten on some dude’s brief case. It wasn’t very good as a boogie board. Etymology:<\/em> trolley (a passenger vehicle powered by electricity obtained from an overhead cable by means of a trolley wheel) + Ollie (A no handed air move where a surfer leaves the water while maintaining control of his board and ultimately landing and riding out the move) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
