Default names of 2 moves?

What is it called when you do a slow high alpha knife edge with the canopy slightly tward the deck, kind of like a 45 deg knife edge?
Also, is a "Moonwalk" between a parachute and a tail slide that gets some rearward ground speed, as if it's flying backwards?
Anybody know for sure?
Thanks

I have heard a guy call the 45 degree knife edge a "butterknife" I dont know if thats correct or not but to me thats a chicken knife edge.

I guess, but it is harder to get going strait and i think it looks cool, "butterknife" sound fumilure though, anybody else?
Maybe we will just call it "the chicken"
By the way Constrictor,
i love the video of your Yak so much that i think i'm picken one up in toledo, that was yours right? who else would put "constrictor" on the bottom right?
i like the covering job too, i was thinking of covering mine like the larger yak AFP scheme, the drippy red and blue look sweet [:-]
