firstly, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxS-wLvlBNI and for the record, i am bowsersenemy. just ask me over at gfaqs. anyway, here's the deal.
now, when i say Dair, i use the term lightly, as this can also be done with the midair versions of the Falcon Kick, and Wizards foot.
this can only be done on fall through platforms. characters like Sonic, Sheik, and Toon Link, shoot downwards with thier Dair. so, this is used to thier advantage. get on a fall through platform, and press and hold down on the stick, and press a. yes, just like performing your dsmash, except pressing the attack button just a hair late. you will instead, perform your Dair and hit the platform you are already on. do this to early, and you will do your Dsmash instead. too late, and you will shoot through the platform. the ONLY flaw here, is that from what i can tell, you can only do this from a standing position, because i don't think you can fall through platforms from a run or a walk.
however, through it's flaws, it reduces the time spent performing the move. the character profiting the most from this new move, is imo, Ganondorf. he has almost ZERO start up time for the wizards foot! this makes the wizards foot the fastest starting move i think aside from the neutral A. possibly even faster. recovery time for each move is no different.
the list of known characters that can perform this are as follows.
Dair:
Toon Link
Sonic
Sheik
Mr. G&W
Zero Suit Samus
Special Dair
Captain Falcon
Ganondorf
Samus
Samus doesn't really profit from this imo, because it kind of makes her a sitting duck. sure, the bomb blows soon, but that's usualy AFTER she's out of ball form.
