Snake - A person who sits by a hit and waits for some one to drop in, and at the last second cuts them of to "snake" the hit.
I was snaked one in Whistler, and Iwas getting sick of it so I said fuck it i'm not cut'n out...so I went and ended up landing on the tail of the snakes board, they ate it I stoped to tear a strip out of them...turns out it was a 12 y ear old girl who started cry'n cause she was so scared....I felt bad....
