I guess it would be called a "Pivot Jump"

Hi, I might have found something new. It's also possible that it's already known, or that it's so obvious that "known" is too generous a term for it. In any case:

If you pivot out of a dash, you can immediately flick the circle pad back the way you were dashing and jump to go one way while facing the other with good momentum. So the inputs are:
-Dash [circle pad, let's say, left]
-Turn around [cp right]

-Quickly jump to the side you were dashing [cp left+x]
And now you're flying left while facing right. I've been using it to approach with a bair.
Is this at all useful information?​

Called Reverse Aerial Rush, bro. 2008 Brawl technique.

Still, it's good to know that it's returning.

I like your name better than "Reverse Aerial Rush" for what it's worth. Most Smash tech names are sort of cringy tbh.

Alright, so it is already a thing. Good to know, thanks.

Totally agree. I'm actually gonna start calling it pivot jumping amongst friends. None of us like the way "rar'ing" sounds and I don't think most people would say that "Reverse Aerial Rush" rolls off the tongue too elegantly.

Just call it RAR, as in RAWRRRR!
