Super Waterfall Climb is the 17th solo event match out of a total of 41 in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is somewhat similar to the Melee event King of the Mountain.
As Zelda, the player must complete one full loop of Rumble Falls without being KO'd. While two sets of Ice Climbers serve as the opponents for this event, the stage itself proves to be the main obstacle; it scrolls much faster than usual (more so on harder difficulty levels), making it far more difficult to survive. The final score (should the player survive to the end) is determined by number of KO's.
It is possible to transform into Sheik once the event begins. Sheik can move and jump much faster than Zelda can, making it easier to complete the event, but the lengthy transformation time makes it difficult to execute at higher difficulties, and Sheik's up special move, Vanish, covers less distance than Zelda's, Farore's Wind.
