It is obviously possible to first either radially deviate, or ulnarly deviate, the wrist prior to bending the wrist back. In both situations, the wrist will be bent backwards, but it will also be either radially deviated or ulnarly deviated in its bent position.
I personally do not believe the wrist can rotate 360 degrees due to movements within the wrist joint. I believe that the hand can rotate 360 degrees, and that the hand rotational movement is due to a forearm rotational movement and not a wrist rotational movement.

Maybe we can look at this another way. What if Left Wrist Cocking was any Vertical (in-line with the left arm) motion of the left wrist produced by bending of the right elbow? So, as long as the Cocking is a vertical motion, then it doesn't matter what the wrist looks like.
