Golden California surfer jargon: hanging 10 means wrapping all ten toes over the edge of the surfboard. Joe B: “I am sitting on the porch putting down some frat water…Just hanging ten and livin’ the dream.” HB: “I thought you were in Tahoe.”
A gold karat is 1/24 part of the whole, and the purity of a gold alloy is expressed as the number of the parts of gold it contains. Thus, an object that contains 18 parts gold and 6 parts alloying metal is 18-karat gold, and pure gold is 24-karat gold.
