    A Tap is a trick that rests on the top side of the thumb and index finger. The pen is tapped by the index finger which causes the pen to start a top spin on top of the curled thumb and index fingers for 0.5 or more revolutions. A Tap Normal will go in the counter-clockwise direction (if right-handed) and clockwise for Reverse. A Half Tap is a Tap that only goes for 0.5 revolutions before being caught between T1. A Full Tap goes for 1.0 revolutions. Anything higher will be notated as Fulltap X.Y Video tutorial by Pari UPSB Wiki entry

    would a faked reverse 0.5 be known as a half tap reverse?

    It's not a ts rev. .5 because it doesnt go all the way around. On a different note, are full-tap reverse and a fake reverse the same thing? (for fake rev. refer to eso's vid)
