Credit to RED for posting a video on this technique, xShix, and DeathlyFerret for testing.

After viewing RED's video there was no explanation on how to perform the jab KO punch, I decided to hit the lab to break down the video.
( I would recommend disabling A and B smash attack before performing the Jab Cancel as it disrupts the cancel. )
We will start with Little Mac.
( 1st ) Shield roll to the ledge.
( 2nd ) Start the jab if the opponent is close to Little Mac.
( 3rd ) Now hold A and mash either up special, neutral special, or side special accordingly.
( Neutral special while the KO Meter is available and up special are confirmed hits. )
Neat right? This will certainly help Little Mac's troubles at the ledge!
What occurs is Little Mac starts to slide whilst holding jab, doing so off the ledge will put him in a free fall position he can act out of, therefore in the first frame of this he can cancel into other moves.
After expanding on this technique, what if i told you that other characters can also jab cancel?
following the same steps as above, Captain Falcon, Kirby, MetaKnight, Mewtwo, Mr.Game&Watch, Palutena, and Pikachu are able to perform this!
( No other character can successfully perform this technique for an immediate follow up. )
Captain Falcon can use up special.
Kirby can follow with up special.
MetaKnight can interestingly follow up with all of his specials, although up special is a confirmed hit.
Mewtwo side special is a confirmed hit. ( possible Fair follow up or neutral special. )
Mr.Game&Watch can confirm contact with up special and if close enough side special.
Palutena can confirm contact with side special.
Pikachu's is rather unique as he can use his up special to confirm the hit and also have 2 choices, either follow up with attacks or ledge hang, even teleport cancels are possible.
Here's to enriching the competitive side to Super Smash Bros!
