Today I decided I needed to up my gameplay and smack down some shffling action, but I'm having a rediculous amount of trouble trying to get the short hop for shffling down. I'm spotty at best. Does anyone have any tips on how to master short hopping?

Press it faster? Seriously dude, what's the point of making a thread to answer an easy, generic question like this? Y'know that magic word that starts with P, ends with ractice? Do it...

alot of people like to use the x or y buttons for jumping
and in order to shorthop with these, you just lightly tap the button

but i'm weird and jump by pressing up, so when i shorthop, i flick the joy stick upwards ever so lightly. it also helps to have a slightly broken in joystick, one that wobbles a bit

XD yea shorthopping is very annoying with IC but just tapping it lightly works. as for hittinh it lightly fast all you need to do is practice.
