Lately I been playing around with wave bouncing PK Fire*, it seems to cut recovery time even more so than just using PK Fire in the air. I'm wondering if there are any other Ness players who are using this? or is it a commonly used technique I was just unaware of.


*when I say wave bounce PK fire I specifically mean jumping left -> bouncing right-> though still shooting the PK Fire towards the left (and vice versa). If that isn't clear, I can post a video (although not high quality) of me doing it.

I don't think it cuts recovery time but here's what it seems to do for me.

If you jump backwards and wavebounce forward, you will send a diagonal pkfire while falling towards your opponent. This puts you in a better position to DJC combo him than you ordinarily could.

If you jump forward and wavebounce forward, you will defensively pop a little backward when you pkfire. I find this one has less utility.
