Unknown Tech? New Tech?

So I've doing something that has really got my brother pissed whenever we practice together, and I'm not entirely sure how I am doing it or what exactly I am doing. I can consistently pseudo crouch cancel his attacks at ~90%. I'll try to recount what I think I'm doing, and maybe someone can tell me what I'm actually doing.

So a couple nights ago, I was playing as marth and he was playing shiek. He had gotten me up to ~90% and as he went in to perform a dash-attack, I (think I) SDI'd downwards and (maybe teched in place) then punished him. This has happened many times in a fight, where I would be at a high percentage, and somehow be able to ignore being knocked upwards when hit (sometimes, I wouldn't even tech-land). Perhaps This is just the invisible ceiling glitch, or perhaps my brother is just johning and I'm not at as high of a percent that he says I am. But does anyone know if this is even possible (presuming it's not the invisible ceiling).

Hmm. looking at some recent tournement video, i'm seeing a lot of people doing this at around the same percent. I guess that answer's my question of "is it new?".

I think you're talking about the Amsah tech, named after a popular European Shiek. Does it look like this?
