I think you're right about slack and stand, and ebb and flood would work but it's usually just a glimpse when I drive over a bridge that makes me think about it, so I don't know which way it's going.
I grew up on the coast, so I never really thought about tides just that that was the way it was. Then I married someone from a landlocked country and every time we drive over the bridge over the cove near our house I comment when the tide is high or low since they are used to lakes, and I'm never quite sure what to say when it's in the middle.

I'm a simple man, I hear a trombone solo - I up vote.
