Default Need to name new maneuver.... Help me out!

When I started flying giant scale, I could not get used to the size of it! Everything felt funny to me since I've never really flown anything bigger than a .40 size bird in all my years in flying....

Well, then I decided I needed to learn to use and exploit the momentum of the airplane. I've been coming up with all sorts of things I've never seen done and this is one of the best of them...... This is not just a 'stick banging' maneuver, you have to fly all the way through it and let all of the right forces act at the right points....

Anyway, I need to name this maneuver! On the ProBro site, I've gotten a bunch of good suggestions (several that I'm really leaning towards), but I want to know what ya'll come up with!

I hope ya'll like it...... Turn the volume up on your computer....

The bottle opener. Looks like the plane is spinning the top off a bottle.

I think the second one from inverted is called a shoulder snap. I don't know if the first one would be classed as a lomecevak or not. Kind of a 3d over rotation of a lomecevak.

Either way it is fun to tumble.

Looks like to me an outside snap roll.

First person Ive really seen perfect it is Frank Noll Jr.

Looks good when you do it, Good Job.

Actually, its more of an inverted blender in execution to start, then you roll back into throttle and pull in up elevator while keeping in rudder to continue the rotation (can get 2-3 rotations in lower wind conditions). You can fly out of it the direction you flew in, or opposite for a turnaround maneuver.

Except for you're timing up elevator into it with some throttle - the "Bottle opener" sounds good, or "Rednelber" (since it is kinda like a backward blender)...

Pop top! (inverted lomecevak) that's what I'd call it.

Looks awesome. In fullscale they call it the Eventail. It was orginally done by Xavier de Lapparent.
