Sorry if this question has been answered before, but I couldn't find it in any of the FAQs or guides. I see pros aerial out of a ledgegrab all the time, but for the life of me I can't figure out how. Any tips?

after you grab a ledge, let go, jump, then aerial

You let go of the ledge by pressing down or away if you didn't figure that out yet

I think fast nair is usually best, but every option is good in different situations.

I think hitting down makes it easier to do nair. Sometimes when I hit back, I don't make it onto the stage and just fall -.-

yes yes watch out for this, usually you'll want to uair due to how fast it is, but again its all situational. dont forget about ledgehop knee, it saves lives.

Be a little more cautious when peach is around the ledge

Because downsmash is coming at you or they can mix it with float cancel aerials

me and my bros call this the
recoverknee
because it is obligatory to knee, to maximize the manilness of not getting edgeguarded.

Dair onto the ledge out of edgegrab is great for catching ppl offguard when recovering, but if they r onstage i usually uair because of the range

Ive not yet been able to get my head around Nair onto stage, I can only get one kick out. Also someone said you DJ (double jump?) onto stage? Thought it's just one jump.

Uhh ... your double jump is your jump in the air

And you just have to press buttons faster
Try slow mo in practice mode if you can't do it fast enough <_<
Make sure you're jumping as soon as you press down

using control stick to get off the ledge and jump makes it super easy to regrab with uair and knee IMO
