The Back Right Outside Pivot it's done from a Right Back Outside Edge.
I learned it from a Right Forward Inside 3-turn (so Right Inside edge, turn and finish on an Right Back Outside edge. The 3-turn is checked with the Left hand and shoulder in front but if the back edge continues the Left hand will go back and the Right hand forward).
- as you ride Right back outside edge (Left hand back and Right hand forward), the back will be align with the circle you make with your edge, in other words will be over the circle
- you bring the free foot (Left) to the ankle of the right foot and then back into the circle
- transfer the weight between the legs (50-50) while you put the Left toe pick in the ice
- bend strongly into the right ankle, turn out the right foot
- have the right heal "drive" pull forward or lead with the right heal, push inside of the heal out
- I vaguely remember you have to hold the thighs together (I'm not doing it in the video)
- you need 1.5 revolutions, I've just red that, I thought was just one full revolution, so I'll have to work on it.
Here is mine:
And I found an example of back pivot on youtube, not concentrating on the technique for the pivot but using the pivot to work on the alignment for the back outside edge.

The Back Left Inside Pivot could start from moving bacwards but also from standing.
-the left hand is hold forward and the left laterally
- you plant the toe pick from the right foot in the ice and transfer the weight on the right foot, on a bent knee while moving the left arm laterally, to start the rotation
- on the same time the left foot presses into the ice to start the rotation and then keeps pressing into ice
The back inside pivot it's used to start the back spin.
