crowdsurfer
Audience-borne concertgoer
A crowdsurfer is someone who rides atop a concert audience, passed hand-to-hand across the crowd.
The practice is common at rock and punk shows, where performers or fans launch themselves from the stage to be carried by the sea of raised hands: Security pulled another crowdsurfer over the barrier.
