Try-Five

A failed attempt at a 'high-five', in which the person on the receiving end does not commit. Especially embarrassing in the heat of the moment, or in front of a large crowd.
Although his team won in the Canadian Open curling match, Greg was completely let down when his teammate ignored his high-five, resulting in a 'try-five'.

Pound Five

When you attempt either to pound it or give someone a high five, and either your or the other person switch the handshake type, without the other person being aware.
Example:

Jim: Dude! That's Awesome! High five!
-Jim begins the high five-
-Rob puts up his fist and hits the middle of Jim's hand-

Thus, the pound five.
