Morphology

grindable = grind (semi-transparent) = grind + able

Derived from 'grind' + '-able' but uses a specialized sporting sense of 'grind' (a trick), which may not be predictable to learners who only know the basic physical sense.

Etymology

Grindable comes from grind plus -able, where grind can mean 'to rub or slide along a surface' and -able means 'can be'. That is why a grindable rail or ledge is one you can slide your board along to do a grind trick.
