360 shove it body varial?

That’s a trick where the execution would dictate the naming I reckon.
If you caught it real nice and slid the 180 a bit, it could be pretty rad.
And I would call that a 360 shuv it revert.
Yeah that’s accurate, but I thought it had a name.
I think I had a trick name breakdown about 2 years ago and decided “Call it whatever you like” was the best option to not just continually wind myself up.
So long as you know what you are trying to convey and the audience understands then why give a fuck?
Frontside indy your face off.

There’s no revert in it though. Board goes 360 in one direction, body in the other.
We should commission Hold Tight Henry to do the science.

But that’s why I’m saying it’s about the execution for that trick.
If you pop the board and it does it thing and the body does its thing before the catch/land, then yeah, 360 shuv it body varial seems correct.
But if you caught the 360 shuv and forced it fs 180 in the air or with a bit of a slide, I would say that 360 shuv it body varial doesn’t accurately capture the nuance of the trick

This is the thing with trick names…They were mostly made up by teenagers on the platform of a ramp.
Before street skating was really a thing. Before Switch was a thing.
The logic only goes so far.
Then you end up pretzelling your brain trying to explain why a fakie crooked grind is simply not called a fakie crooked grind, or how a fakie olie into a switch K gets a pass despite it being fakie.

True.
But trick etymology is surprisingly robust in most instances, considering it was mostly created by stoned teenagers.

Fakie ollie crook is fine in my book. Just like nollie crook. If you’re not popping switch it’s not really switch. Same reason a Pupecki grind is to fakie 5-0 not to switch nosegrind.

That would be a 360 shove to late 180. I used to do the sketchy impossible version of that. It’s a completely different trick. You would send the board 360 then back 180 the other way.
The trick I described is board 360 one way, body 180 the other.
A completely different trick where your body and board have done the same thing and the outcome is the same… 
But your logic isn’t solid.
Fakie ollie crook. You fakie ollie. What position does your truck land in? Fakie ollie crook would suggest the OTHER truck. Y’see?
…and yes, Pupecki totally works. Would never argue that. You pop off the tail therefore you can ONLY grind regs or fakie from that point. you can’t grind ‘switch’.
Frontside 180 Switch Five O is such an offender and I always corrected it, but whatever. I know what trick people mean and so does everyone else. So, it’s fine.
It’s the skate version of knocking people for not being able to spell everything. Or messing up spellings of words which when vocalised sound exactly the same.
They’re is know way to get every mastake ever. Besides, if you have your way of doing it then cool. Leave others to theres.

Maybe I should let @BvS explain cos he knows 
You are describing a 360 shove late 180, right? The board travels through 540 degrees, 360 one way, 180 the other.
The trick we are referring to is a big spin where you turn your body in the opposite direction to the shove. Board goes 360 backside, you turn 180 frontside. Board only ever does 360 degrees.
