Scott,

I believe you just described the "scoop rescue". Very good for an unconscious victim or one with a disabled arm or shoulder. 

I also had to do a HOG at a CKF practice session. A woman was practicing an assisted re entry with another paddler and she had a new boat with a very tight skirt. It was so tight she couldn't remove it. After she was under for quite a while I went in and did a HOG to get her upright.
