Backtrolling 

Backtrolling (bæk•troʊl•ɪŋ) (verb)

The exact origin of this word is often disputed, due to the usage in two distinct cultural subgroups; Rural Cajun, and Urban Black/African American. Both variants come from Southern Louisiana and date back to the early 1980s.

1. Cajun: The act of using an outboard boat motor to slowly move backwards while fishing. This was often done due to lack of the financial resources needed to obtain a trolling motor and deep cycle battery for a fishing boat. Running the motor in reverse allows for a slower “trolling” effect needed for certain fishing techniques.

2. Black/African American: The act of moving backwards using reverse in a car on idle, while attempting to capture attention of potential female mates. This is most commonly done with a group of 2-4 males, whom after passing a group of females, will put the car in reverse and idle backwards to meet them.
Example (1): “Clovis, How’s ya mama an’ dem!”? “Me an Ti-Jean gone backtrolling, caught barbue. Gonna make coo’ boo yon”.

Example (2): “Y’all Niggas backtrolling”? “Ahhh Shiit, check thottie”.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
