Mario's sex kick in Brawl

A "sex kick" is an aerial attack which remains extended for a few moments after the initial thrust. The term was coined by smasher Matt Deezie as a sexual innuendo. Usually a kick, the attack consists of the thrust (kicking motion) and the extension (leg remaining out).

Almost always a neutral aerial, though sometimes a back aerial, the signature aspect of a sex kick is that they are stronger during the initial thrust and weaker afterwards (with the exception of Dr. Mario's sex kick, which is weaker in the first few frames). In Brawl, the initial hit can connect for only the first frame of the attack. While some sex kicks only have one hitbox for the thrust, others have a series which grow progressively weaker. Other typical attributes of a sex kick include low startup time and landing lag.

Although the term classically refers to only neutral aerials, smashers often extend its usage to other aerial attacks with similar properties, such as Fox's back aerial in Melee.

List of Sex Kicks

Super Smash Bros.

Almost every character has one sex kick: their neutral aerial. The two exceptions are Donkey Kong, whose sex kick is his back aerial, and Fox, whose neutral and back aerial are both sex kicks, making Fox the only character with two.
