The episode (Monkey Fonics) also gives us, once
and for all, the correct spelling of the move. So all
arguments about the name and spelling of this
move are forever over; no more phoenixes please.

McNasty (AKA ‘pistol flip’ or ‘back
pan-am’):

Eric Jackson. Remember last month’s column on
antonyms like sick? Here’s an antonym crossed
with a Big Mac, “I love Mcdonald's and tend to put
a ‘Mc’ in front of a lot of words to ‘Americanize’ what I
am saying. I thought the move was ‘Nasty’ in a
positive sense and wanted to give it a little extra
special sauce with the name, too!” Stout!

Lunar Orbit:

Eric Jackson, Zambezi River, 2003, “It was during a
bright daytime noon overhead. I literally saw the
moon over my bow on my first try of this move and I
described the move as ‘squirt your bow up to the
vertical and then do a full rotation around the moon
before bringing it back down through the water
vertically.’”

Macho Move:

named by Eric Jackson for obvious reason!

Super blunt:

Patrick Camblin’s bread-and-butter (c2010/11) is
sometimes cited as the first combo move in
freestyle, but Corran Addison’s super blunt
(clean blunt to super-clean spin) predates it by at
least a decade. The naming is obvious.
