Really? I haven't seen Star Thru in contra much; in MWSD, at least, Star
Thru is normally done with partners facing each other, as opposed to the
California Twirl with partners facing the same direction. What's being
asked for here is a sashayed California Twirl -- I don't think I've ever
seen that before. However, "Nevada Twirl" does have plenty of hits when
I search, which suggests a clear provenance...
(You could argue that in a ring partners are sort-of facing each other,
but I think that's a wasted argument when people already have a clear
choreographic name for the concept.)
