Good question. You could just say that a particular trick requires a Toppit but not say what it is. Sleeving or other explanatory names are best avoided so just refer to them as moves or sleights. If you're reviewing a book then there's probably no need to go into great detail about each individual trick in the book, just brief descriptions of the type of tricks covered by each chapter should be enough to give readers the idea and, if they really have to know more, they can always PM you.
