What is the difference between a 180 and a Half Cab?

I am curious. I am trying all the 180's

I have landed a switch HS to regular TS off the wake and have landed two different ollie 180's. I was trying to go switch TS to regular HS, thinking if I just got in the air I would stick the landing since regular HS is my most dominant riding position. Both attempts at this have lead to the nose of the board going into the wake. I guess I have too much weight on that front foot. TS regular to HS switch seems to be the next easiest one to try. I had seen the term Half Cab used, and wasn't sure if it was just a 180 or involved something else.

So according to n00b's response the two 180's that start of switch are Half cab's??? Is it still a half cab if you do an ollie 180?

just don't forget to transfer your weight to the other foot.
