I would write gas, petrol, or benzin in these ways...the first one is
easiest...the second one shows diagonal action of the wrist, which puts
the hand at a weird angle to make that diagonal wrist motion...So I
would not worry about the palm facing...that would only confuse the
point, which is the direction of the thumb...
