My instructor called that evasive maneuver a "Box Canyon Turn". Bank 90 degrees while pulling control yoke to stomach and praying earnestly to one's Maker! A fairly high-G aerobatic exercise, but our trusty 152 held together without complaint nor rippled sheet metal. It did take several hours for my internal organs to return to their normal positions after a half-hour of practice....
