Not really — once it goes past the wrist, it’s usually called a forearm handshake, grip, or sometimes a “bro shake” or “sport shake.” It’s often used to show extra respect, solidarity, or camaraderie (common in athletics, military, or certain cultures).
So while it’s not a traditional handshake, it’s still a meaningful gesture — just a bit more intentional and personal. 🤝💪
Technically, no—that would be more of a forearm shake or sometimes called a “wrist grasp,” often used as a sign of mutual respect or camaraderie in certain contexts (like martial arts, athletics, or some cultures).
A traditional handshake involves grip below the wrist, but if it goes to the elbow, it’s a different gesture entirely—still meaningful, just not a standard handshake.
A next riddle Virginia? Yes it’s still a handshake
Thanks for your answer David. I am not sure if I would call that a hand shake. I would find that a bit intrusive and unfriendly.
I think, it is not typically considered a standard handshake.
Thanks for your answer Ethienne. I think I agree with you on that

Well explained thanks for you answer Kevin
