ok, i know it is for example a 270 in, then 270 out on different way. but is it  pretzel, if i go "normal" on the rail, do a switch up, then do 270 out different way than the switch up?

Pretzel is changeing spin direction after at least 180 degrees of prior rotation ( swap or 270 or more on). So 90 on fs 270 wouldn't be a prezel.

I call pretzel anytime you scissor the feature, heel or toe. Don't get too picky.

So basically if you do anything besides straight slide the feature then you call it a pretzel?
