This weekend at GGACC I learned a new term describing part of a spey cast's D-Loop--the Lexus Loop!

A Lexus Loop is an airborne, modest Bloody-L-like discontinuity in the backend of the D-Loop, caused by a slight downward twitch at the end of the backcast.

Are there other names for this? Solutions that will remedy?

Bob,

I'd like to offer my thoughts but last time you told me I was wrong so I'm a little a-scare't to say anything!

Dana,
Take a poll.

Actually the Lexus Loop happens when my wife drives her Lexus out of our curved driveway and does a loop heading back to the main road.

Dave, loop describes the maneuver you perform as she twirls you around her beautiful finger!

You are correct, my original Lexus Loop was when I bought the Lexus for my trophy bride of 44 years this week.

By the way, I want to give credit for the "Lexus Loop" terminology to Frank Chen, GGACC caster extradordinaire!
