OrangStand in the game Donkey Kong 64.
OrangStand
He can handstand when he needs to.”
DK Rap

OrangStand (Palmus Walkum) is one of Lanky Kong's special abilities in Donkey Kong 64. He can learn it by purchasing a potion at Cranky's Lab for three Banana Bunch Coins in as early as Angry Aztec. By pressing and holding the Z Button button while tapping the B Button button, Lanky will perform a handstand and walk on his hands, enabling him to scale steep slopes he could not otherwise, functioning similar to the Talon Trot in Banjo-Kazooie. Some slopes, however, are too steep to climb even with the OrangStand. The move has an enhancement named OrangStand Sprint that can be learned in Crystal Caves, which involves Lanky running at a fast speed while using OrangStand.
