Hey guys!
First SmashBoards post. Woo.
Anyway, I think I may have discovered a new Jab Lock move for sheik: Sourspot Bair.
Found it while playing against my friend, then later tested on CPU. Didn't do very good testing, so this may not exist at all, but I would love it if someone could test it for me, and provide footage. I play on 3ds and have no way to film it.Basically, if they miss the tech immediately fastfall bair, hitting them with sheiks thigh. I'm pretty sure it jab locks.
Again, if someone else could test this, it'd be great.

Have fun with this guys!

It does jab lock, however actually pulling this off (due to bair's diagonol hitbox) is much harder than a sourspot nair making it less practical

but it does exist :3 :D

The only advantage to sourspot B-air over sourspot N-air is that B-air is weaker, so the lock lasts maybe 10-20% longer than N-air. That's all, really.

Fullhop needles > Footstool > Bair jablock could work if done right.
