No, because 'gazelle' just sound so infinitely gay. On par with "dolphin flip". Trick names were cooler when they were given by hard living party guys in the 70s, and not skinny kids who film all their stuff in their parent's garage.

No it's a nollie frontside 360 which is why back in the early 90's when people were doing those weird 360 pivots out of noseslides and crooked grinds they were calling it "gazelle out".

Probably the reason why the name was dropped.
