Im sorry guys I do not have a video of this but please bare with me. I was in a 1 on 1 match on Norfair, I got the smash ball and used my FS. The Ice Mountain came up but there was no wear to stand so my IC started to slide to death. I used my up+b to connect to the little ledge (D.1)
____ ^
____/X\
___/XXX\-(D.1) <---The little platform ledge (too little to stand on but you can hang from.)
__/XXXXX\
_/XXXXXXX\
./XXXXXXXX\ ^^^^^^ <----Doom




____ ^
____/X\
___/XXX\-(D.1) <---Now cause of the up+b nana (1 IC) connects to the little ledge (D.1)
__/XXXXX\
_/XXXXXXX\
./XXXXXXXX\ ^^^^^^ <----Doom

But this is were it gets interesting... Nana continued to hand from the ledge with the lifeline (white rope) still connected to popo.... but popo doesn't shoot to connect to nana like he usually does...


____ ^
____/X\
___/XXX\-(D.1) <---Nana Hanging
__/XXXXX\
_/XXXXXXX\(D.2)<------popo slowly sliding down mountain with lifeline on...
./XXXXXXXX\ ^^^^^^

Popo slowly slides down the mountain at (D.2), now, I'm thinking the game is just laggin and at any moment the lifeline will push popo back to nana... or snap and popo will fall to his doom. But then thats when I discovered something. If I didn't do something I was a dead man because I continued to fall closer to doom... so my first instinct was to press the jump button...your not going to believe what happened.

Popo started to walk his cute little self up the mountain (no joke). At first I was only slowing down my death because I wasn't pressing jump fast enough. But then I actually started to move up the mountain of Ice when I pressed the jump button faster(also, it might have been the A button...) I kept gaining aptitude and I was like 0_0 cool!... but then the lifeline snapped. I think I could have lived if I had started to press jump faster than I did... I mean I didn't press anything for like 4 whole seconds...

Anyways this is just something that happened to me.

Wow, that is epic. I wonder if you can do that without the FS somehow.

This video shows their up-b being used as a tether recovery (Nana homes in on an edge at 2:38)
