So i recently picked up Peach and i am trying to get the hang of Float canceled nairs... I was wondering if i am doing this correctly... Also i hear the double jump sound, is that fine? Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, you're not doing them right :/ What you're doing is a Double Jump Cancelled nair -- which are good, but Peach's float cancelled nairs are much better.
So your inputs probably look like this:
:GCX: :GCX: :GCA: :GCD:

but what you SHOULD be doing is this:
HOLD :GCX:, press:GCD:, :GCA:, Release :GCX:, :GCD:

obviously, Ys and Zs work in place of Xs and As, respectively.

if you're doing it right, you shouldn't flash red (or white) at all from landing lag, and you shouldn't hear a double jump sound.

Hope that helps!

You have to start the nair during the float but you can fast fall while it is coming out or out.

That GIF is exactly how you do it. :D Keep practicing that until it's fast and you can do it whenever (and make sure you're not getting any Dairs).

Make sure you practice this OOS (out of shield.) You.'ll really be doing yourself a favor if you start this now instead of later. Let me know if you have questions about how to do that or its utility.
