We need your buddy, the Riker maneuver.

The Riker Maneuver

I actually named my Mastodon account that.

I like that my profile (on mobile at least) looks like he's Riker maneuvering a Riker maneuver:

Cocky cowboy move or really back injury, we will never really know.

We appreciate the content bro

Thanks! Just trying to do my part to help the fediverse take off.

This is from Insurrection, right?

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yes, I believe so. I've only seen the TNG movies once, so my memory is a little fuzzy.

Geordi only has the visor in Generations, pretty sure this is a TNG episode

The comment you’re replying to is replying to a comment with Picard doing a little dance. Thats from Insurrection.

Your mention of Geordi makes me think you’re looking at the comment with Geordi sitting as Riker does his maneuver, which is out of the comment chain.

You’re right, MrGG asked if it was Insurrection and I based my reply off the other gif right below it, wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t pointed it out. Live long and prosper

I feel like this was after one of those training simulator episodes where they go to different points in time but I'm probably wrong
