Overview

A drill kick. The final hit has a weak meteor effect. An effective combo starter on grounded opponents, and a dangerous edge-guarding move on recovering opponents. Low ending lag makes it relatively safe to use off-stage. It can also be lead in to a foot stool jump. This move can combo into a vast majority of Kirby's arsenal at almost any percent.
