crowdsurfs
Rides concert hands
Crowdsurfs is the verb form of crowdsurf—to be passed hand over hand across the top of a densely packed concert audience.
A performer might dive from the stage to crowdsurf; an audience member climbs up and is carried along by raised hands.
She crowdsurfs at every punk show.
The practice requires trust and a cooperative crowd.
