Swivel is a Fingerless [[Sonic]] variation where the trick starts by holding the mod while palm down. By doing a sudden wrist movement, the pen rolls on top of the hand, doing 1.0 revolutions, after which it hits the index finger and is then caught in 12.

=History=
The name swivel was given by Lindor in 2009. Originally, he used the index, ..., pinky prefixes to indicate in which finger it started, thus the basic variation being a pinkyswivel. However, Lindor wasn’t the first to do this trick. Twisted cobra bite predates swivel and is a pinkyswivel rev. Even prior to that, the Japanese spinner Coulomb did a pinkyswivel bust in one of his videos, which was then called Coulomb combo.

In Taiwan, the name 水蛇 (water snake) is very commonly used, and it’s
the only trick name that is more often written in hanzi than in roman letters
by experienced spinners. In PSH’s last set of tutorials, done in 2013, the trick was called swirl.

The fact that this trick is a fingerless sonic was first pointed
out by Jamie Enns and disputed at the time.

pinkyswivel = (PD) fingerless sonic P4-12

Thus, it can simply be writen as that. The initial slot can be interpreted as 44, if it the slot is interpreted as being held just by the pinky; or as P4, if it is instead interpreted as being held between the pinky and palm of the hand.

=Variation=
==Twisted Cobra Bite==
A reverse variation of a swivel. In a twisted cobra bite, starting from a neobak 12, the pen then rolls over the back of the hand, after which it’s caught with all of the fingers.

In 2007, the French spinner Skatox created and named both the cobra bite and the twisted cobra bite, the latter being the version with conical rotation of the former. The name was inspired by the cobra stall.
