At about 18 seconds sonic grabbed the edge while facing away from it.

Yeah, we knew this since E4All.

No problem though. I was pretty amazed myself at first.

 

[Shuma]

.... So? That's old.

 

[omiz144]

Yup, opposite edge-grab confirmed.

 

[DRaGZ]

Yeah, we pretty much knew that since Gimpyfish's impressions...

You're a few hours late, bud.

Not to be a **** but, so what? When a character's relatively close to the edge, didn't they always grab it regardless of direction? The only times I have ever had a character not-grab the edge not-facing it was if I was too far...

[Airgemini]

No..I think in Melee you had to be facing it...
But yeah you're a couple of months late..

 

[BKBroiler]

I've also made a discovery!
Your discovery is old =/

No. Some characters could grab the ledge backwards, like gannon and samus after using their triple jump, and even then you had only a short amount of time after the animation completed to grab the ledge while facing away.

Good find, but sadly, you're not the first. Check my signature under "Advanced Techniques" and in that thread there was maybe about 3 pages of debated. We called it Edge-Snap, i think.

Also we didn't know what Wall Clinging was but we KNEW we saw it. We brushed it off and just a wall kick then side+B. but yeah we saw it. thanks for contributing though.
