Brandon, That pic is great.

3D seems to be evolving still. Sean McMurtry does a trick that he learned on a foamy that transfered to his big Yak. I would describe it as a knife edge waterfall. The plane starts in a hover. Then spins on it's axis sideways. It ends up back in a hover with no loss of ALT. Maybe a cartwheel would be a better name for it.

I have a Funtana .40 that does some great 3-D. The trick the guys want to see the most is the easiest one to do. It is an inverted elevator. The plane drops straight down inverted with the nose slightly higher than the tail.

That's called a pinwheel.
