Is anybody besides Grubb and Horrell able to do them? They make sense in my mind, but I never really see anybody doing them.
Also, TS or HS, does anybody ever grab their shuvits tail? It seems like it would be a lot easier that way, but what do I know...

I've seen others do them. I have yet to land one personally, but I've come close. I'm pretty sure Lovette does one in the first web video he released a few years ago.
I can do re-entry tail grab shuv's off of the wake or from the inside out. Not wake to wake though. I love doing tail grab shuvs, on my skateboard too. It is a simple trick, but a fun one.

yeah i can do both ts and hs. hs are easy to land but the hardest part is just getting the grab. my advice is to just try one at the end of your set and just reach for the grab as hard as you can. once you get the grab the board will be right underneath you. once i got the grab i did it in like 5 tries

If you like shuvit to tail try shuvit finger flips, there pretty damn hard but if you can do them good they look soo nice.

no, I think tail would be harder. when you grab indy it's really easy to level the board off under your feet and get them on just right. when you grab tail your fingers have to work a lot harder and you can't be as precise, and with the weight of a wakeskate, it would probably make a big difference.

I have a video of a re-entry shuv in my gallery, but not with a grab.
http://www.wakeskating.com/media/showphoto.php?photo=102
To do this trick, basically, ride up the wake and start to do your shuv. But you want to pop it back off of the wake and not continue up the wake. That probably makes sense at all, but once you try it, you will know what I mean.
When you pop these right, you can get them up high.

Jerrysk8... True, his nose is what is going into his hand, BUT, apparently the rule of naming a grab applies to where your hand is, not where the board is. So the nose magically turns into the tail when he grabs it with his back hand.

his hand is still reaching forward to grab the nose. also read the text in the picture it says nosegrab.

Its a shuvit nose. He is grabbing the nose of the board.

Never listen to WBM's captions, they have a habit of murdering trick names. OK then, he is grabbing the nose with his back hand, but that would be called a crail or seatbelt grab, there is no nose grab with your back hand... By those rules then, should a shuvit indy be called a shuvit stalefish? Because they are grabbing the heelside of the board...
