In S1E14, at the beginning Riker is walking along side Yarr and Worf who are departing to play a game when Riker says “The pride of the Enterprise goes with you!” and the. Gives a reverse 🖖 hand signal. Anyone know what it means?

(Tried attaching a photo but it won’t let me for some reason)

    Nope. His palm is definitely out. He just doesn’t have his thumb extended. Other than the thumb, it’s a completely normal Vulcan salute. Perhaps Frakes had a bit of trouble with it early on and just hadn’t got his thumb out properly yet?

      No. It is not. I’ve watched the scene a dozen times. His palm is in… facing him, and thumb is in. Even in the screenshot I posted his palm is in.
