backpaddle

When a surfer decides not to take off on a wave and backstrokes with his/her arms to keep from being sucked over the falls. This is common with beginner surfers who end up getting in the way and wasting waves for others.

Look at that kook backpaddle off these waves, what is he doing surfing at this beach?

backpaddling

disingenuous method of returning to earlier arguments or completely changing their methodical approach after their core argument has been refuted or debunked to avoid being held accountable. a good example of people who backpaddle are schrödinger's douchebag's.

"hahaa kill all men 2020"
"that's a very harmful message to convey, especially for younger males who are unable to understand the connotations of it"
"chile it's just a joke."
"backpaddling much."

Backpaddle

Incorrect spelling of backpedaling, used by commenters and then justified by using an unreliable source.

It's understandable. I accidentally used backpaddle instead of backpedal. But I don't want to admit that I'm wrong.
