To me, I think the coolest subskill would be creating vacuums within the air. As others have said suggesting soundbending, creating a vacuum would play into a possible soundbending skill, sound negation. Since sound requires some medium for vibrations, creating a very thin vacuum could stop all sound coming from a direction. Also, creating a wall of "empty space" would completely stop a firebending blast by removing the air to fuel it. And to those who wish to see a darker subskill, this satisfies that as well. Simply creating a local vacuum around an opponent's head would cause suffocation. Even just a single main skill like pulling air away to create vacuums could be utilized in so many ways
