Somewhat situational, but I've noticed that if you're hanging from the ledge, and in rapid succession you tilt away from stage, then hold towards stage, then jump, then air dodge, you basically do an immediate from-ledge wave-dash towards the opponent.

This allows you to very quickly throw out a grab (or other things I guess) from a ledge-hang. It's gotta be something like 12 frames from on ledge to throwing out a grab. Here's a quick example of what I'm talking about:

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to work on that. I swear, one of these days I will discover something new.
