spin out

usually thought of as the leading side of the body (left side for a right-handed player), especially the pelvic girdle, turning too early in the sequence of the swing (many times before the weight has been transferred to the front foot) Example: Lots of different results could be caused by a spin out, but they'll almost never be good.

reverse pivot

(also "reverse weight transfer, reverse weight shift") when the weight is on the front foot (closest to the target) on the backswing and the rear foot (farthest from the target) on the downswing and follow-through (this is the direct opposite of the proper sequence) Example: A reverse pivot/reverse weight transfer followed by a wild slice; a classic combination for the ages.
