The intercarpal joints are the joints between the carpal bones of the wrist. They are plane synovial joints or gliding joints, meaning that the bones produce movement by gliding over each other.
The joint between the carpals in wrist (intercarpal joint) is a synovial gliding joint.
The joint betweens carpals in wrist (intercarpal joint) is gliding joint (also called arthrodial or plane joint).
Intercarpal articulations are synovial joints. They are plane joints, articular surfaces are essentially flat, allowing only gliding movements. This includes the carpals and the tarsals.
The joints between the carpals are synovial joints. The only movements permitted in the interphalangeal joints are flexion and extension.
gliding
Gliding.
Gliding movements occur when one flat, or nearly flat, bone surface glides or slips over another without appreciable angulation or rotation; this type of movement occurs at the intercarpal and intertarsal joints
the site of junction or union between bones, especially one that allows motion of the bones.
glenohumeral joint and coxal joint are both ball-and-socket joints which are diarthrotic. intercarpal and intertarsal joints as well as the elbow joint and atlantoaxial joint are also diarthrotic
synarthrodial joints are immovable joints
Ball-and-Socket Joints. Smooth, hemispherical head fits within a cuplike socket. Only mutiaxial joints in the body are the shoulder joint - head of humerus into glenoid cavity of scapula and the hip joint - head of femur into acetabulum of hip bone.

The kind of welding that is suitable for strong joints is Tee joints
synarthrodial joints are immovable joints
radiocarpal and ulnocarpal joints

Fixed joints are formed by the skull bones.
Technically the wrist joint is the one between the ulna and radius and the scaphoid and lunate carpal bones, however this is disputed by many who tend to believe the wrist is the combination of the carpal bones. By the first definition the only movement that the wrist joint does is flexion and extension, the rest are donr by the intercarpal joints. The second definition is the intercarpal joints and so it allows for the inversion and eversion movements associated with the wrist and so also allows for circumduction too. Finall suppination is often wrongly associated with the wrist joint. This is not true suppination is the result rearangement of of the relavitve postions of the ulna and radius.
