i discovered this today:

with sheik, hold down to crouch, all projectiles that would normally go over you can be reflected this way. when the projectile is right above of sheik press your shield and it should reflect it. this is usually easyer timing than the normal shield reflect. i know this works with Falco's blaster and Samus's Missiles, i havent tested it with other projectiles. this Wont work with samus's Charge beam fully charged because it will hit you instead of go over you

So, you're saying the timing is easier if she's crouched?

Sounds cool, I'll have to try it.

That makes since, but I've never thought of this before. Good find!

Of course, it will work with any character with a low crouch.

Yea, it sounds useful, but I think it's better to practice Power shielding normally. Thanks for the tip though

yoshi players have been doing this for a long long long long LONG time.
still, not bad. although i prefer to just crouch and walk slowly in-between or shield-dash when i'm approaching against projectiles.

not new, kinda old. And it does work with samus' charged shot, you just can't wait as long to sheild as you would with other projectiles
