Spocks

Category Code: SPK Windsurfing Spocks
There are two camps in the Spock world:  Those where the move ends heading in the direction you started the maneuver, called the regular Spock; and those where the move ends heading in the other direction (a transition), called the Spock-540.

Regular Spocks

The Standard Spock has the usual variations:   The One-Handed, Switch Stance, Clew First, and the Diablo (A Spock performed with a sail duck at the end of the maneuver).
The Diablo started as a move itself but over time the word 'Diablo' has taken another meaning as well.  Diablo is also used as a move modifer and implies a sail duck was added to the move; much like Clew-First means the move was done with the Clew Forward.  For Example, a Grubbie Diablo would be a Grubby with a sail duck at the end of the move.

Spock 540

The Spock 540 has the usual variations as well:   The One-Handed, Clew First, Switch Stance (Puneta),
