@2:27 and @2:50

you'll see that when the ice climbers Dair to an angle that is below 180
they do a sort of waveland

I could be wrong but, I think because of brawls new game mechanics when you land an aerial close to a hill you will slide down the hill.

If Dair gives you an automatic WD then thats preety cool!!! But sadly, what Phlemingo said makes sense :(

That is pretty cool but i also saw yoshi do it with his down b in that video so i think phlemingo is right. also wavedashing was mostly used for faster movement with IC and this can only be done on 1 slopping section. but it is pretty cool lol

Its most noticable with link's dair. if you jump from below a platform and dair you immediately appear standing on the platform with no lag. With link the timing is anywhere between his hip and his shin is in the platform to dair. With ike its more precise. This also works with just the ground.

I'll see if I can get a video up of it soon. I guess it can be called land cancelling since you are essentially cancelling you landing animation. I guess it can be called aerial cancel. I dont care what its called honestly.
