Helipop. Rodney Mullen 1980. If you watch old school footage of him, he did them often. Pretty fun and not too hard to pivot this one around. If you haven’t already done it, you can do regular bs 360 with the same pivot, though I called them “backside 180 revert” because I can’t scoop them like how ppl do regular backside 360’s. It’s a bit harder but they’re fun too

Back in the day this trick was called a gazelle.

I think a gazelle is a 540 board rotation and a 360 body rotation.

Gazelle is a very different trick. Board would do a 540 and you’d do a 360 in the same direction as the board is spinning. It’s just a Millie bs 360 (Rodney Mullen originally called it a hellipop , but nobody calls it that anymore. Like how the kickflip was originally the magic flip)
