For as long as I can remember, I’ve referred to a 270 on, front swap, back 270 off (270 on to kfed in essence) as a crown. At least around these parts, no one seems confused when I say that. Do you all say the same thing? If not, do you use a different name to describe this particular combo?

270 on continuing 450 is also known as a crown, it's because people who had those tricks used to farm rail jams with it

very interesting. i had not heard that but you can clearly see the link. my guess is that at some point it was like a game of telephone and someone mis-heard or mis-spoke while passing the word about where that middle 180 is taking place

Yeah I've heard both, they are essentially the same trick, probably interchangeable with 4 on continuing 2 off I bet
