it just has to do with the direction you're spinning, if you grab with the same hand as the direction you're spinning then it's considered reverse, for example a 360 spun to the left with a left handed mute grab is a 360 reverse mute

opposite and reverse are interchangeable terms

i call em leading and regular/trail

eg cork 7 leading mute, cork 7 trail tail (that usually means trailing true tail) thats just my slang though, i here lotsa ppl using it, but i dunno.
peace.

Well it just means with the direction yoru spinning, it doesnt nessacarily have to be left for reverse because maybe you spin to teh right or you are spinnign unnaty.

question: if your spinning left and want to do a reverse mute, do you change how the skis are crossed? like regularaly it would be right ski over left ski. but with a reverse would it be left ski over right ski with a leading hand grab? get it?

for me it's a mute either way. call it reverse, opposite, leading, inside-out, upside-down, whatever, it's just a mute
