Here's a video [VIDEO] talking about the history of the backside air and how the method air came out of it. Chris Miller invented the crossbone around around '87 or so. The way he did it was a lien air that is kind of a nosebone pointing back the way he came and the a tailbone pointing the direction he is headed. It's kind of a windshield wiper motion which is what OP is doing.
