Broken Fingers is a Half Truckhook Impossible caught in a 50/50. Starting in a Tailstop, you put your front foot under the board and jump up while kicking the board over lengthwise so that it flips upsidedown. You then catch the tail of the board with your front hand and land on the truck with the same foot that you used to flip the board over. From this position, you can then transition into a Pogo, etc., or simply flip out. Broken Fingers got its name from the likely outcome that if you don't jump high enough and catch the board correctly, you can fall and smash your fingers between the tail and the ground.
