I'm a Y/L wavedasher my self. idk why I used those buttons, I just find them more convenient.
X, L. Y in HRC for some reason though, unless I need to shorthop.

I use Y/R. I play Fox, so obviously you need to be able to move your finger quickly in order to do shine combos. It seems to be the quickest and most comfortable way to wavedash. I use L to L-cancel, and am trying to get back into habbit of shielding with L also. If you keep these techniquest limited to a single button variation, you will become more persistent and you won't have to think about what your doing. You will be able to SH dair, fast fall, L-cancel, shine, wavedash, up-smash just by imagining it.

I hardly ever use L (maybe to ocassionally tech or to trigger the alternative music of a stage), using R is more comfortable and "natural"

X/L for me; I'm left-handed, so the only thing I use on the right-side shoulder area is Z for jc-grabbing.

I hold it claw style and use x and r to wavedash and r to land.

I use L to wavedash, L to L cancel, and Y to do all short hops and wave dashes. I'm trying to get out of the habit of using L to shield because it's the only trigger I can wavedash with, and it's nice to be able to wavedash without letting go of the shield button.

Y for all jumping. R for all wavedashing/landing. L for shielding.

Claw style is where you hold the controller differently with you right hand.
I use my index finger to jump with a flick, not a button press and my thumb is almost always on the c stick. I use my middle finger for z and r. It has a very high learning curve but once you get used to it, it becomes waaaaay easier to do really technical things more constantly. I've found it helps spacing a lot. Short hopping is easier i find because it's just a flick. There are certain thing that are only possible to do with clawing mainly doing multiple jump canceled shines in a row with falco (see dashizwiz). Actually I'm not sure if he uses claw or not but i would think it would be beyond human limitations to move your fingers that fast. With claw it is simply an issue of timing.
I'm sure there are topics around here somewhere that explain it more and all it's benefits.

I use X for all jumping ('cept occasional situational use of up) and I can't even think which trigger I use to wavedash o.O I'm pretty sure I wavedash with L even though I use R for teching, shielding, dodging, and everything else. It's kind of silly since R is just easier to control the stick with IMO.

X and R reign supreme of all possible button configures.You probably know that in your hearts.

Y and R. It never works with any other combination.

I shorthop with X
I do all my L stuff with L.
Works for me. Though I wish I used Y because I could do fox stuff easier, the way I do it gives me a huge callous on my thumb from waveshines and whatnot.

I always use Y to jump. X is too close to my thumb, and Y is in a better position in relation to A and B. I use L to L-cancel. I use L and R simultaneously for shielding and wavedashing. The only time I don't use both shoulder buttons for wavedashing is when I waveshield; I hold L to shield and press R to wavedash.
