Hey :D
After trying to do that god-forsaken DACUS move, I found this. I don't know if it's been found already, and I haven't seen it done or mentioned, so apologies in advance if this is known already. Anyway, here is *basically* what happens:
Sheik dashes in one direction.
Turns around.
Grabs.
The reason sliding is in brackets is because 3 different things can happen depending on your timing with this move.
1. Sheik turns around and her momentum stops altogether. This is sort of like the 180 degree Falcon Punch. Since you prepared the grab while going in one direction, it takes less time to grab.
To do this: Dash in one direction, then dash in the opposite direction and hit Z at the same time - e.g. Dash Right >> (Dash Left + Z)
Timestamp: 0:12
2. Sheik turns around, dashes towards the opponent while preparing to grab, and then latches on immediately upon contact.
To do this: Dash in one direction, dash in the opposite direction, press Z once the dash registers. e.g. Dash Right >> Dash Left >> Z
Timestamp: 0:06
3. Sheik slides backwards, while grabbing in the other direction, much like the DPC (Dash Pivot Cancel).
To do this: This one if kinda tricky in terms of timing. You need to press Z IMMEDIATELY after dashing in the opposite direction. -- Dash Right >> Dash Left, quickly press Z.

Here is a video of the three. They're done at different times, but you should be able to tell the difference. Timestamps are posted above.

(Apologies for the horrendous video quality. I can't figure out how to stop that flickering effect, and my camera was stolen so all I have left is a webcam.)
Basically, what this move allows you to do is be more accurate and quicker when trying to grab. When you are stationary and trying to grab, and your opponent sees you reaching or blocking, it's pretty obvious what you want to do. This move's flashiness helps catch them off guard. (No pun intended)
Anyway, that's pretty much it.
