I propose the portmanteau "helilator" for this move.

(or escacopter)

Nice going, maatc!

I'd try it, but it too closely resembles how I lost my virginity.

Thanks guys!

Surprised how short the clip actually turned out.
The two rounds I did felt like at least five! The escalopter bends time!

If you could eat a sandwich at the same time, I would throw my first-born at you.

This might have been better if the girl laughing behind the camera had done it instead. JK, good job.

I like the lady took the escalator after the attempt.

Escalopter is kind of meaningless from a latin root stand point. How about Escaheli? No? Escalopter it is then...

Escalopter

The novel activity executed on an escalator, whereby subject lies rigid with mid to lower back touching both handrails moving in opposing directions, and spinning slowly around in place.

"That escalopter ride had that old lady tripping over herself when she saw it. Mall security took our pictures on closed-circuit tv's. I stole this Prada coin purse."

I actually tried it lying down on my ~~belly~~ butter side down, but its hard to get the feet up over the railing that way.

I guess a perfect 10 would be to do barrelrolls at the same time.

Hope to see some fresh moves from all of you soon!

How in the heck did this happen? I just google'd escalopter (again) and found the page below with a link to the original escalopter video (the girl) and the thumbnail image is titled "escalopter.jpg". It definitely wasn't there before we coined the phrase, so I ask you, how in the heck did they discover our © term? Neato.

Haha! That's so awesome. Wish I knew what is said in the interview, but how cool is that. You're famous and you're making "escalopter" famous, so much so that someone has already registered escalopter.com.
