Oh, good point. I know Michael Karcher once told me the opposite of a
California Twirl was a Jersey Twirl, but I've heard other names used.

Taminations and ceder.net seem to indicate that the only specific phrasing
used for this is a "mirror star through" (see definitions/demonstrations of
double and triple star thru).
