The polite way to put it would be that it refers to a raking strike to the groin - most commonly associated with the downward snapping middle-knuckle in Short 3. Is there video of the interview on the net? I've heard the phrase a thousand times but never straight from the horse's mouth.

....It was an example of the Middle knuckle strike and it's point of contact as in Short Form 2.
As a sign post it also tells you that it was a hair pin type strike used on the drop when the power principle Marriage of Gravity was in Directional Harmony....the Line of Force plays a big part here!

Dan got it right for the most part, its the 5th and 6th sections of Short 2.
