Unusually high nose attitudes in power on stalls are almost always the
result of an improper set up for doing the stall. This involves
excessive energy (airspeed) that has to be bled off, especially in
airplanes with fairly powerful engines.
There's no need for an excessively high nose attitude when doing a
power on stall.
Try slowing the airplane first by throttling on back while rotating in
pitch, right on down to normal climb speed, then continue to rotate in
pitch while applying climb power to a normal climb attitude . From
there simply continue to increase pitch smoothly on into critical angle
of attack where the stall will occur.

How true...

After my first couple of attempts, my instructor (semi jokingly)
admonished me for attempting to perform a loop.

I saw Richard Petty try this at Telladega once, but the fence got in the
way and spoiled it for him.

LOL. I'd have to declare most of NASCAR's car-obatics closer to
"Lomcvaks" (Sp?) than anything else...

Couple of guys have done some pretty good axial rolls and the occassional
'Very Low Inverted Pass."

I had a sort of comedy routine I'd go through in the S2 Pitts while taxiing
out to enter a lesson with a student who was going to be doing his first
Lommy.
I'd describe it to him something like this on the intercom.
"Just give me a 45 degree up line with full power and let the airspeed drain
back to 80. Then give me full right rudder, full left aileron, and full
forward stick simultaneously. Shut your eyes cause it's gonna scare the
living s**t out of you, count 3 seconds and open 'um again. You'll have done
your first Lomcevak!!!
But don't go to sleep yet!!!!!!!
At second 4 we'll be learning all about inverted spin recovery".
