Homemade tricks anyone?

As far as I know, I invented the above wheel walking variation.
I call this skill "one-footed forward lace walk." It's frequently done
backward, but I haven't heard of anyone else doing it forward. Before
learning this skill you should be comfortable with forward spoke walk
and one-footed backward lace walk, and a little work with coasting
wouldn't hurt.
You should learn this skill with a wall or ceiling, or whatever other
method you use for learning wheel walking variations. Lean forward and
position your foot as low on the wheel as possible, with as much of the
top of your foot touching the wheel as possible, so that you can get
enough grip to move the wheel. You have to pull very hard at first and
take very big steps, removing your foot from the wheel and
repositioning it between each step. While repositioning your foot you
have to coast briefly. If you have a square frame you should be careful
to avoid scraping your shin on its corner. When you get better at it,
it will be a lot smoother.
You can transition to this skill directly from riding or idling, but I
think the easiest method is to take one wheel walk step forward with
your non-driving foot and hold the wheel in place while you position
your driving foot. To get out of it, switch to regular wheel walking,
or transfer to the pedals.

I don't know if I invented this trick but i haven't seen it been done
before.

I call it a "crankwalk", You start hop idleing on the cranks then you
take your foot off the crank that is facing backwards and push down on
the crank thats facing forwards with your toe. This will make you roll
forwards half a revolution and your foot will kind of roll on the round
part of the crank near the axle. When the wheel has gone half a
revulotion forward take you foot that is on off and place your other
foot on the crank that is now facing facing forwards and push down with
your toe. Continue the pattern and you should get faster and not have
to push down to go forward. To get out of it just put both your feet on
the pedals quickly.

Sorry about my bad discription :p Can anyone tell me if this has been
done?
