Ok so my noob question involves the waveshine. I can do perfect wavedash and all so thats not a problem, but I just dont understand how to do it. Is it:
Shine>Up on C stick/y/x>R with downward angle on C stick> Shine?
Or something like that? Im sorry if that ^ is hard to understand but please try to help I havent won a match ever since people started perfecting this move. Basically that question is asking how do I go from Shine to wavedash, is it by using the jump from the jump canceling the shine into the wavedash? Please try to understand this :(

It's pretty straight forward. You shine, then you wavedash. do the wavedash how you would normally, with no difference. (i'm guessing the 'C' in C stick stands for control?, since it obviously isn't the c stick).
The is only 1 trick, getting from b> (whatever you wavedash with) as quickly as possible.

Wavedashing requires that you actually jump, so you can't JC them. You just want to hit R or L before you get too far off the ground. And by C-stick I'm assuming you mean the control stick or analog stick not the yellow one which is called the c-stick. Keep in mind that when you shine you have a few more frames before you can jump out of the shine so the wavedash timing is slightly different.

I only refer to jump-canceling when your actually canceling the jump(which is done in multishining where your canceling both the shine and the jump in the same process). Technically what your doing is shine-canceling, your using jump to cancel the shine ASAP then wavedashing.

10:59 is not too early in the morning. but yes, you jump out of the shine, and turn that jump into a wavedash. So for all intents and purposes, you shine, then you wavedash. that's the hand movement. (of course, i use rhythms and patterns of rolling the control stick around, and pressing the buttons at the right timings to achieve faster waveshines, but that's not necessary to someone just learning it) (btw ^^ "rhythms" is the longest english word w/o a,e,i,o,u)

no such thing as a noob question. ask as much as you want thats what these boards are for and if somebody says use search then just ignore them because actually talking to people and reading archives are totally different things.

A waveshine is a shine followed by a wavedash. There's a tiny gap in between the moves because you need a four frame (I think it's four) period when you can't do anything from the shine. Just wavedash whenever after that.

That's the most concise yet full way to describe it. Go Kenny!

7 frames if you hit something. Hit lag ftl.
