Here's an example of the most effective way I know to stop momentum.
In this picture, I stopped myself from moving by landing on my hands and stretching my leg out as far as possible.



I make a triangle with myself and the ground.

With the body as the hypotenuse, land slightly angled to the ground.
The more momentous, the slighter the angle. Try to get your self almost parallel.



This replay is an example.

I would not recommend you to use such an "trick" to cancel out movement, in the case of moving backwards with your back to the ground and your shoulders raised id say that doing a simple tap with one arm while extending wrist would give you a much better opportunity of doin a sharp turn.

One of the best tricks I know doh is to lax EVERYTHING that is not needed too keep your positioning so that the momentum is divided into other body parts..
Now doing recoloring for people not in the clan as-well, PM for more info!
