Yeah, I would recommend using tap jump as mentioned above. Using it with button jump can be done with practice.

When you say aerial shine what exactly do you mean? A shine in the air? Just trying to clarify.

Yeah, a shine in the air. It only combos quick like that in the air because you don't have to wait for your jumpsquat to perform the jump cancel into back air.

I personally use Y to jump out of shine to avoid using tap jump as much as possible. I know it's personal preference, but I've noticed that when using tap jump, i might be facing the wrong way when jumping and incorrectly input a fair instead of a bair.

That makes sense. I'll figure out what works for me. Didn't think of that
