Do people already know about this shell trick?

[Digimonkey]

I just discovered this cool trick with the green shell. So please don't get mad at me if everyone already knows about this. Basically when I fall I throw the shell down, jump on it, and catch it. It gives you a boost high enough with some characters to do it endlessly. Here's a link to show, sorry it's a little fuzzy and soundless.

Now here's a list of everybody that can do it (I'll use + if they ascend, - if they descend, and = if they remain the same height).
Remember, you have to fastfall after every time you catch it:

Pikachu =
Snake -
Marth =
Fox =
Peach +++
Ganandorf -
Charizard =
King Dedede =
Wolf -
Bowser -
ROB --- (technically he doesn't even do the trick, but his dair just keeps him up)
Ike =
Captain Falcon +
Lucas -
Pit =

This makes a good recovery technique.
Everyone not in the list either can't catch the shell or can't jump off of it.

Interesting. Can it be done with any other characters or just Fox?

I'm not sure if it's known or not, but I haven't seen it before. If you did discover this, good find!

Haha yeah, it's a pretty cool technique, just keep doing it and then deflect it or something to hit someone when they aren't ready.

Someone once turtled against me with this on WiFi.
