Not only is your inhuman agility able to mysteriously propel yourself twice in the air, it's also is good for pulling off some sick skate tricks!
Boston Boarder publicity blurb

The Boston Boarder is a community-created special taunt for the Scout.

When the player selects it on the taunts menu, the Scout grabs a skateboard from his back and flips it before dropping it onto the ground, getting on it, and kicking the ground to gain momentum. The Scout continuously moves forward during the taunt, but it is possible to steer left and right with the movement keys. After a while the Scout does the shaka sign and looks around before kicking the ground again to keep moving. Pressing MOUSE1 makes the Scout do a Heelflip Manual, while pressing MOUSE2 makes him perform a Backside 360 Ollie North. When the player ends the taunt, the Scout grabs the board back and puts it away.

The Boston Boarder was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
