Y to B works for multishining with Fox, but with Falco I've been finding that B to Y makes the shines cancel much much faster. The timing is tricky.

instead of

Y --> B / Y --> B / Y --> B...

I do

B --> Y / B --> Y / B --> Y...

The /s are when I pick my finger up.

Mostly because my fingers are used to multishining with Fox, and the control stick feels awkward and slow.

Hmm... I might try this. Good thought. I usually jump out of my shine with the control stick during a shine spike. It's a Fox thing that I still use with Falco when I want to get out of my shine quickly.

well when I did training mode at 1/4 speed I noticed it did like 4rings before it stopped. I think I got it once, but I can't get it to work again. I just held down the control stick and tried to press B twice fast, but you're saying you need to JC it? sorry for the nooby questions, I'm trying to get better with Falco and make him my secondary (he's so fun :)).

Very quickly shine, jump, shine, jump.
That's how you do a quick double shine. If you start on the ground, you can do ANOTHER shine after that for a quick triple shine, naturally you can't jump out of the last one though.

dunno why people are calling it double shine to begin with...you can theoretically do an infinite amount of these :/

True, I usually say "multi-shining."

JC means to jump cancel. When I JC shine, I start off with the shine, then go into a second, after that, I usually grab.
