Is there a specific name for a 180 where you drag your hand across the table top of a jump?
Also if someone could link me a video showing one performed it would be great.
Basically: what is the name of the trick at 1:27 and can someone link a full vid of it being performed

yeah super easy trick that looks intense just pop near the top of the nuckle and throw your hand down and feet up
 
everybody already said it... but yeah. Hand drag.

My first attempt (fail) was today.

Anybody got some tips? My problem: I land sideways... or if i land it correctly, i am leaning completely forward. "frontseating" or "switch backseating" if you will...
 
Bump, what is easier on a jump over something? Hand plant 3 or 180? I have tried the 3 before but had trouble getting back on my feet, are 180's easier? +K for help.

aproach the knuckle with 5x the amount of speed necisary, pick a spot on the ground on the knoll, and pretened you "dropped something" on the knuckle. Let your legs drop out from under you, and reach down/back and if done correctly, your legs should come around at either 3 or 5 depending on the size of the drop. Also consider the fact that if your going for a Handrag 3, you don't need to spin whatsoever. This might sound crazy, but if you think about it, your already almost at 180 before you get off the snow, and the extra 1 will come naturally.
 
I don't know if this is what you're referring to (2:12), but I'm more interesting in finding out the name of this and how to do it.

This is EXACTLY what you want to do. Don't do it when the speed is shitty either. It's quite hard to land switch in that position. So make sure the speed under the knuckle is smooth. Also, if you are going to grab with your right hand, try and reach for under your left foot with your left hand, it seems to help the hips swing up a bit. And vise versa.
