In S1E14, at the beginning Riker is walking along side Yarr and Worf who are departing to play a game when Riker says “The pride of the Enterprise goes with you!” and the. Gives a reverse 🖖 hand signal. Anyone know what it means?

@QDidNothingWrong I suspect it's just a simple case of the actor getting it wrong and no one on set really noticed at the time. It's definitely not the standard form.

Another fascinating point is it’s not tradition to do the Vulcan salute to a non-Vulcan of which none of the characters on screen were so it’s strange he’d use that salute when not referencing anything Vulcan in the scene.
