Did I invent a grab today? Or am I tripping

Today I thought I invented a grab. Threw up for a big shifty, but tweaked it up hella high so my bases were facing forward at like 90 degrees to the snow and grabbed under my foot on the top ski. Sorta the same concept as a tail whip on a bike, I rotated my body 90 and rotated back for the landing

did I just create something new? Or did I just do a cork straight air safety





if this is a new thing it’s called a riot grab (kinda like using your skis as a riot shield)



I didn’t get a clip unfortunately but I can get one tomorrow or somethin

Ok, if I do a nosegrab instead of a safety while putting my skis up like a method, do I get to name the grab? Or is that something already
