It depends on how you do it. If you point the tip towards each other it is called it is called plowing. Im not sure how it isa called if you slide sideways, I just call it stopping. So I hope I give you ideas.

Stop similar to the techniques used by figure skater or a hockey skater. If you are a newbie, you may stop using a snow plow.
