Default Tic Toc funnel

I've been playing with this on the sim. Do tight tic tocs and feed in aileron as you transition. You wind up with a little tic toc circle thing. I havent seen this done although I doubt it is original. Have any videos of this? Anyone tried it?

Most times what you described is done with aileron tictocs. With foward momentum start the aileron tictoc and feed in elevator and you have a snake. Doing them going backwards looks the best with tail leading the manuver.

Why not combine the two and go from aileron tic toc to elevator tic tocs while moving around in a funnel...kind of like an "around the clock tic toc"

I've seen this done although usually it's done in a large circle for better presentation. There's a video of Pete Niotis doing travelling tic tocs like this over on RR. Just look in the video section for Hirobo Cup 2006. I liked the way the maneuver looked so much that I started doing them this year. Nowhere near as nice of presentation as Pete's were though.
