sorry’ dunno how to search for these kindo things.  
It does transform almost trivially to other (named) mounts like 1.5 etc which to a degree eliminated the need for a name in most cases, but then there are tricks like laceration to _asdfghjkl_ and double trapeze suicide to _qwertyuio_

Looks like a kamikaze mount, not quite sure.

I don’t know if it _is_ “Mach mount”, but since you can often get into it through a Mach Whip, I like that name. If that’s not its name already, I vote that’s what it should be. :wink:

I learned it as a “Mach mount” from some tutorial on YouTube so that’s what I call it

I wouldn’t call it a kamikaze mount just because kamikaze isn’t really the only trick that starts with it.

It was originally called Kamikaze mount when Paul Escolar invented the trick, so it’s a Kamikaze mount. It’s basically a sideways Mach 5 and could be entered using a mach whip, which are why it is sometimes called Mach mount. Just call it Kamikaze Mount.
