Reverse Charge Shot

I feel like I'm flooding the board with topics (this is like 3 in one month), but I have to ask if there is knowledge of, a technical term, etc. of the reverse charge shot. Just like the reverse falcon punch, you jump in the air faciong one direction but attack in the opposite. Here is how I did it.

I charge up the shot. Run in one direction and then jump. While in the air, I tap the control stick in the other direction and then fire (not holding > + B, I hit > then released and then hit B). This immediately turns her around and she fires.

I guess my question is, do we already know about this? Is there already a name for it? Does anyone use this but me?

I've seen HugS use this in a few of his videos, namely where he goes from grapple -> wall jump -> reverse charge shot.

But I have no idea if there's a name for it, I'm afraid.

I figured this out some time ago on my own and it is quite useful.

But no I don't think there is a name for it.

I'm almost certain it can be used with any projectiles. Exmp: fireballs, pills, arrows, etc.

You can turn around anyone's neutral B in the air.
Yeah, because of finding this out, my Roy can now reverse B which turns out to be a great help.

As for it not being named... it is just a reverse, so I guess no big woop.
