It called a "butter", butter refers to spinning on your tip/tail, or what your talking about.

SPIN TO WIN.
That's what I call it anyways.
It doesn't matter if you spin 180 or 720, it's still a spin to win.

it looks alot better when you spin 270 or 450 or whatever on then stop your rotation on the box, then continue spinning with that same momentum at the end, looks so slick

A butter isn't just spinning on the box, a butter is actually pressing on the tails or nose of your skis, and then spinning.
