Or lets say one parent is very high iq (e.g. 130+) and the other parent is less than 90. Genetically, how can the child be very high iq? While studies suggest the child on average usually a little dumber than the average of the parents due to regression to the mean (e.g., two very high iq parents produce a child that is just above average) what is the genetic mechanism that causes a surprising outcome?

Randomness. There are lots of genes that affect IQ, and the kids could randomly get the best of both parents' genes through dumb luck.

I know a super smart adopted dude who was able to track down his father in his 30s. Father never knew he existed. Father is super smart in exactly the same ways and they share a lot of intellectual quirks. Maybe it's an anomaly but I can say with some certainty this dude got his brains from his dad.

the same way genetic randomness can produce ANY number of multitudinous traits that are at the tail end of a trait spectrum, rather than being some heuristically perceived version of the arithmetic mean of the phenotype expressed in both parents?

this is like asking how it’s possible for two average height parents to sometimes have a 6'7" NBA player son, or how an NBA/WNBA father/mother can sometimes have a 5'9" child. it might not be a high probability outcome in any individual case, given the parents, but it falls on a continuum of non-zero probability outcomes that will ultimately be observed *some* times across millions and millions of births.

really, very low IQ question by the OP tbh.

First, lets be clear that this does not happen all that often. Two 80IQ parents are not creating 120 IQ kids.

Second, when it does occur, a non-insignificant amount of the time one of more of the grandparents are smart.

Third, IQ is clearly a mix of many genes all interacting with each other in ways we don't understand (hence why the Chinese have not been able to sequence a collection of smart genes).

The crude way I think about it is how two ugly parents can have a good looking kid if their features mix and match in the same way. There is likely cross-over in this idea with IQ (albeit less so).
