Sex kick is a slang term for an aerial attack that remains extended for a few moments after the initial thrust. The term was coined by Matt Deezie. The signature aspect of a sex kick is that it is stronger during the initial extension and weaker afterward, although Dr. Mario's sex kick reverses this trend. In Brawl, this initial hit can connect for only the first frame of the attack. Other typical attributes of a sex kick include low startup time and low landing lag.
The original definition of a sex kick was a type of kick in which the attacker thrust one leg straight out to the side with the other leg curled up underneath them. These kicks would be left out for a short period and were stronger during the start of the animation. This kind of sex kick is almost always a neutral aerial.
Although sex kick 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.
