I have called those Drag Curls for many years. I am not sure who developed or perfected them but I do know that John Parillo in cincinnati ohio was the first one I heard call them Drag Curls. I think that is a more fitting name.

That is not the correct form for a true Gironda curl, Vince would have the palms much further apart & I do not recall him having you lean forwards into the movement.
