the sh dair is faster to execute, but alot of the time it gets DI'ed out of. so i noticed that if you execute a fh dair the same way you do a fh nair, then there is a greater chance that every kick will hit.
anybody else do this?

Full hop.

on topic: It's easier to follow a backwards tech if you full hop dair (out of dthrow).

Probably the taller ones. Also, I think FH Dair would be easier to see coming at you. You can try doing SH Dair OoS to punish moves. It works for me.

Whenever I smash up on the control stick and down on the c-stick to use full hop dair, it always ends up being a short hop. I hold down both of the control sticks in their respective directions but it seems like it's impossible to full hop and dair with the control stick.

Holding down on the control stick and rolling my thumb from Y to A feels really awkward for me.

Imo, Fair is not really good to use as an approach move. Well, if you SH the Dair, make sure you press Dair right after jumping for all hits to land.

And its not really a good idea to approach with Snake in the air.
