Long load screens. How do you fiddle with your controller?

Move the sticks in opposite directions, like U/D/L/R. Left stick goes up, right stick goes down, etc. I do it rhythmically. I had to pick up a controller to see what I'd do because I don't really think about it.

I used to input THPS tricks on any controller I picked up, but haven't been playing the series for like 8 or 9 years now so that habit died.
 
In one of the GameCube Mario Party games, I think 6, there was a snowboarding minigame in which you had to spin while airborne. You had to press a button combination of A > B > Y > X to turn 360 degrees and do it as many times as possible before landing. Me and my sister played minigame mode and practiced this one a lot, so I tend to press the face buttons in a clockwise order now out of habit, no matter the platform.

Isn't A B Y X clockwise on the gamecube controller?
