Going half-send is when you hesitate and don’t go full send which causes you to end up totally wrecking yourself. Going half-send is commonly considered something you never want to do. For example, when going off a cliff or jump you may have to go fast to a flat spot or rocks, but going half-send will cause you to land on those rocks, the flat spot, or some other dangerous terrain and end up tomahawking, rag-dolling, and double-ejecting.
