    I know that the SM to flag is called a fonji, but I’ve never seen anyone go back up to SM, let alone doing it 3 times in a row lol. She is seriously amazingly strong! Does anyone know if this sequence has a name?

    It's still a fonji.  Back up is harder at first, but I'm told that in time it becomes about the same.  (I split a Chinese pole lesson with a friend, where I was working on down and she was working on back up- six months later she can go up and down a few times in a row)

    I was under the impression that sm to flag was fonji and then adding the reverse made it “kamikaze”. But whenever I say kamikaze people just stare at me :/

    That is just 3 fonji's in a row.

    There's often more than one name for a move, so it could well also be called a kamikaze.  As far as I know it's originally a Chinese pole move, where it's just called a "shouldermount flip", whether it's down or back up, but that's a little confusing because sometimes you hear that same term used to describe the flip that goes up and over to the side of the pole.

    According to PDD it is also called a switch or a shoulder mount to half flag.  The only kamikaze listed is also the cocoon.
