If you mean the spin to sit, I call it an Aerial Pirouette to bomb or pole sit. I believe after that she did the Jenyne Tumble.

The Aerial Pirouette can be a bit tricky. Kate does it very clearly. To do it, I hold myself out from the pole in a split grip hold. If my right hand is high, I'm going to turn to my left. I do this by first scissoring my left leg in front of my right, then letting go with my left hand as my body comes out of the scissors and back to the left. Since only the right hand is holding, the body turns around to the left. If you get enough momentum in the scissors kick, you can spin all the way around so that the legs grip the pole in a pole sit (or sort-of a pole sit, if you're less flexible like me). Usually, once my legs are gripped into the sit, I drop my right hand off the pole and do a little bit of a drop, but you could stay in the sit and go into another move from there.
My biggest tip is don't drop the hand holding onto the pole until you feel your legs grip! Make sure you have that twist and grab before dropping anything else. You can smooth it out from there over time.

If you ever want a video, I can try to remember to take one the next time I'm at the studio.
