So its a flip(backroll or frontroll)360?

pretty much

heelside mobe is a backroll to revert and continue spinning another 180

crow mobe is a scarecrow with a backside 180

just different ways to think of it

A mobe is an inverted trick with a full 360 degree rotation and a handle pass. The original mobe was the mobius, hence the nickname, which is a trick-skiing move involving a backroll and a 360. for wakeboarding, it's a heelside backroll with a frontside 360, and is commonly referred to as a heelside mobe or a backmobe, to aviod confusion. Now even if you do, say, a tantrum with a backside 360, which is called a moby dick, it's still referred to as a mobe, because the term mobe has become a category that encompasses all inverts with a 360 degree rotation and a handle pass
