Ok, I'll bite. The video below is a double twist double back straight, which I assume is something like a double back with a double twist. At first I thought the initial couple of flips was the double back part, but now I'm pretty sure the "back" and the "twist" are part of the same move and the first couple of flips are just part of the running start. So it's end over end twice while also spinning twice. Got it.

How many more of these do you think I'll have to learn to get them to send me to London next year?
