Trials move that I'm not sure of the name

It has a name, can't remember it. I was out in my local park today, riding this machined rock that was perfect cube-shaped. When on top of it, it's slightly shorter than the wheel base, so the edges of the rock are pinching the tyres about 3 inches inwards from both ends of the wheel base (the center of both wheels). When trying to go from that position straight to rear wheel, the bike fell backwards from underneath me as I kicked the pedals, resulting in some shiny new scratches to forks, cranks, legs and soul. What is the move that gets from that pinched position straight to rear wheel called, and how do you do it?

This photo of me describes the position of the wheels better

I thought it's just a wedge, as in 'sidehop to wedge' or 'potato wedge'

I think it might be that? Unsure

Maybe this move only that your wheels are on one obstacle.

It could be made with sth. like a static hop. You don't pedal just jump up-/forwards with the bike to land on the front wheel.

definitely not that because the tyres in that one are pinched on the outside of the wheelbase, it's a different idea

It's wedge as far as I know, like side hop to wedge.

right, how do I do it?

definitely wedge.

p.s. i just looked at the picture and i wasn't bothered to read all that text.

cheers for the unnecessary information, and you must have read it to see what I was asking....
