    Are there words that describe speed reading skills for: across the lines, down the pages, and turning the pages?

    There are different terms,but for across the lines you can use the sweep or the zig-zag(also known as the loop)for down the pages you can use the Hand,the Hop, or the Card.I am not sure about turning the pages,but they say to do a preview(scan the book quickly).All they are describing are different hand techniques.
