Smash Mods

While playing P:M with my friends yesterday, I found something interesting.
RAR is a VBrawl technique that allows you to reverse the direction you face out of a dash just before jumping. In VBrawl, this was used to approach with a bair (hence the name.) However, in P:M this technique has a lot more utility. If you RAR and instantly wavedash out of it, your character will wavedash while facing opposite the direction you were just dashing. The most significant use of this technique is edgehogging. With this technique I can run at the ledge, wavedash off the stage backwards, and grab the edge all without losing momentum.
I know this application isn't surprising when you think about these two techniques, but I hadn't seen anyone using it and thought I'd share. If you need clarification on how to do this or what it is let me know (I know my writing sucks xD.) Unfortunately, I can't provide videos. Thanks for reading!

I use it all the time. Tons of other people do too. Sorry, but this is nothing new.

I'm concerned what's this called and can u do it in Melee, Wavedash forward -> Pivot after falling into grabbing edge.

EDIT: Oh, I was thinking Lucas was still in the wavedash when he hit the ledge, but I'm mistaken.

No. It's wavedashing out a a RAR. You turn around while dashing, jump right after, then wavedash. It's not in melee.

EDIT: oh you're talking about that in the videos. He just turned around out of a wavedash while keeping momentum, what's so weird about that?

rardashing?

...and that's how things get named in the world of smash. I guess we can call it rardashing now, I like the way it sounds, kinda.

you might be confusing it with a thing in melee where you can turn around the moment you slide off an edge... can't remember what it's called, though...


and i also do RAR wavedashes all the time=)...

...Wut?

That's it, we're calling these RARdashes now, only it's pronounced radishes.

I lol'd so hard at that, devicer...

rofl radish

epic posts are being made

lol i'm definitely gonna start saying radish...

Radishing.
It works great for Lucas.

Peach needs a new vegetable vertex!

Yeah, this is commonly known. It's a really nice way of quickly getting to the edge; it makes it easy to stop Shino stalls and the like.

Toasting in an epic bread.

I loved jumping on platforms to waveland off to attack, esp. with Ganon and Samus (partially because shield dropping was hard [hell even just plain dropping through was hard]). This makes it a lot easier to be facing the right direction when doing this!
