So, I was just thinking, if I was to do an x-up-double peg stall or -smith stall and pivot the back of the bike around (making my arms straight again), into another double peg or smith, facing the opposite direction, what would that be called? Also, has this been done before? Thanks in advance!

OK, thanks! (Just to be sure, you do understand that I'm saying that the front peg never leaves the ledge/coping, right?)

Surely that wouldn't work in a Double Peg as you can't pivot round?

The person in this edit does something very similar. But not the same.

what I have in mind basically involves something similar to a nosemanual whip, except 1) my feet never leave the pedals, 2) the bike is stalling on the front peg, not in a nosemanual, and 3) It's only turning 180, not 360.

I think I know what you mean, the spin will be like an X-Up late 180, so you X-up and then you and Bike follow round? although in your case you do an X-Up grind and then do the Spin. If so, I highly doubt that's been done before, Good luck, but you realise that will be really hard to do? But still sick!

I would imagine it has been done, probably by some random kid. I feel like this would not work well as a grind, but do ok as a stall.
Basically from what I get, do an x up stall, then pivot yourself around on the front peg (similar to a nose pivot 180, just on the peg) around into a double peg or smith on the other side.
That would be rough on the wrist unless it was done fast, give it a go?

YES. That's exactly what I'm talking about. I really want to try it, but won't have access to a very good setup for it until next weekend. This whole idea was actually a result of me finally landing a feeble-stall-to-smith-stall and wanting to continue to expand further. Thank you very much dave!

Get some vid action if you get it.
Try it on any ledge and get it dialed, so you can dominate a quarter.
