I'm designing Christmas gifts over here and trying to come up with WAG moves that start with all the letters of the alphabet. For some I will need more than one move beginning with the same letter. I need help! For the letter 'E' I only have Endo for example and need at least one more. So, if anyone fancies trying the challenge of coming up with a skill for every letter, then go for it. Or if nothing else, what can I use for my second 'E'?

Thank you in advance.


Example: Print of gymnasts name.
Salto
Aerial
Mo Shoot
 
That is my reserve choice for now as it's not a term I've ever come across in real life. But I do appreciate your answer and realise I now sound like a spoilt child!!
I sat down and tried to do the whole alphabet thinking ahead for the rest of her squad. It is harder than you think!
 
I've heard the term 'English handstand' on here before, Im not sure what it it but it is some kind of handstand on beam (I don't know cross or side)
 
It's actually written L-grip. Although phonetically you're right.

I had to think about that one. But I thought it was cleverly done on purpose. That is how you spell the letter 'L' after all.

Thank you everyone for your ideas. I quite like 'extension'.

I'm going to sit tonight and work out if I can do the names for everyone in her squad, so I imagine I'll be back with extras tomorrow. I sat and tried to do the whole alphabet and it's harder than you think!

Ooh, thank you for the extra help. I thought it must have been done before but am clearly useless at 'search'.

I am just making some little handlettering pictures in simple frames for the gymnasts. So very like an acrostic poem I suppose. I was struggling with Z. And V. But a Valdez is one of my favourite moves - especially on beam. Still wanting another I (i) for a gymnast with more than one I in her name....
