fire scrollEnd when finger is released? or something that does the same?

Is there an event something similar to scrollEnd on a scrollView, which fires when the user releases their finger, instead of when the view stops scrolling whether the users finger is still there or not? I'm trying to create something similar to a pull-to-refresh, but I'm struggling to fire an event when the finger is released as when the finger is released, the view snaps back to 0 offset, then scrollEnd is fired with an offset value of 0, so I cant tell how far the view is offset.

I've also tried using touchend on the scrollView, but that doesn't seem to work when scrolling is in progress. touchstart and touchend are only ever fired if I 'tap' the scrollview and dont move my finger, as soon as the scrollview has 'scrolled' the touchend event doesn't fire.
