sorry I looked at your earlier quesitons, and see now that it is indeed about skateboarding
Ingeborg Gowans (X) Feb 23, 2010:
just want to make sure is this skateboarding or water surfing?
"Hollies" I think are "ollies", if it is skateboarding, my son used to do this a lot..some trick they perform by grabbing th skateboard and turn around. also done in snowboarding (watching the oplympics in Vancouver right now)

you tube on "holly skate" maybe this helps a bit.
I was thinking, it could also refer to Holly Morris who is very well known in the realm of skateboarding..
