The '''Hyrule Jump''' refers to the act of crossing the open space from [[Hyrule: Temple]]'s upper right [[ledge]] to its bottom-most [[platform]]. It can be performed in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]''.  Every character can perform the Hyrule Jump, though it is considerably more difficult for characters with short recoveries in ''Melee'' such as [[Falco (SSBM)|Falco]] and [[Roy (SSBM)|Roy]]. Since Temple is banned in the standard [[tournament legal (SSBM)|tournament]] [[tournament legal (SSBB)|ruleset]], the Hyrule Jump is never seen in competitive gameplay. However, in single-player-mode matches, the Hyrule Jump may be useful in disorienting CPU opponents because they must travel a long distance to get to the player's new position. Another term for this is "Temple Crossing".

The '''Reverse Hyrule Jump''' is the act of performing the Hyrule Jump in reverse, or [[jumping]] from the bottom-most platform to the right-most ledge. In ''Melee'', [[Jigglypuff (SSBM)|Jigglypuff]], [[Luigi (SSBM)|Luigi]], [[Kirby (SSBM)|Kirby]], and [[Mewtwo]] are known to be able to do the Reverse Hyrule Jump. [[Link (SSBM)|Link]], [[Peach]] and [[Young Link]] are technically able to perform the Reverse Hyrule Jump as well by using their [[down special move]] [[bomb]]s to [[damage]] themselves to the point where the bomb's [[knockback]] can carry them most of the way to the upper ledge.

In ''Brawl'', [[Charizard (SSBB)|Charizard]], [[Fox (SSBB)|Fox]], [[Ice Climbers (SSBB)|Ice Climbers]], [[Jigglypuff (SSBB)|Jigglypuff]], [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]], [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]], [[Luigi (SSBB)|Luigi]], [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]], [[Pikachu (SSBB)|Pikachu]], [[Pit (SSBB)|Pit]], [[R.O.B. (SSBB)|R.O.B.]], [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]], [[Sonic (SSBB)|Sonic]], [[Wario (SSBB)|Wario]], [[Yoshi (SSBB)|Yoshi]] and [[Zero Suit Samus (SSBB)|Zero Suit Samus]] are known to be able to do the Reverse Hyrule Jump. [[Link (SSBB)|Link]], [[Peach (SSBB)|Peach]], and [[Toon Link (SSBB)|Toon Link]] are technically able to perform the Reverse Hyrule Jump as well by using their self-damaging bombs as Link, Peach and Young Link can in Melee. Lucario can also perform a very difficult version of the jump by wall-clinging near the top with his [[ExtremeSpeed]]. Another way is to use his wall jump on the platform you're standing on then use your mid-jump followed by an ExtremeSpeed at a small upwards angle, but this is one of the hardest reverse jumps to perform. In order to do it with the [[Ice Climbers (SSBB)|Ice Climbers]], you must mash the [[Special Move]] button while performing [[Squall Hammer]] to gain maximum height and distance. With [[Yoshi (SSBB)|Yoshi]] you must perform the Super Jump, an advanced technique which allows Yoshi to perform two double jumps from the ground.

 

 

The '''Down Under Jump''' is another jump that can be attempted on the Temple stage. It is performed by jumping off the left of the bottom-left landmass, underneath the spike protruding from it, coming back up, and grabbing the left edge of the bottom platform. In Brawl, thirty-three characters can perform this jump; Sonic, Charizard, Lucario, Meta Knight, Kirby, R.O.B., Pit, Toon Link, Jigglypuff, Yoshi, Ness, Lucas, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Captain Falcon, Pikachu, Diddy Kong, Marth, Fox, Wolf, Zelda, Sheik, Squirtle, Ice Climbers (although the secondary climber dies), King Dedede, Luigi, Mario, Ike, Mr. Game and Watch and Wario. Additionally, Snake, Link and Peach can perform the Down Under Jump by damaging themselves with their bombs.

 

The '''Reverse Down Under Jump''' is performing this move in the other direction, moving right from the platform to under the spike and grabbing the left edge of the landmass while moving up. Eighteen ''Brawl'' characters can perform the Reverse Down Under Jump; Sonic, Lucario, Meta Knight, Kirby, R.O.B., Pit, Luigi, Wario, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Charizard, Pikachu, Jigglypuff and Toon Link. Additionally, Peach, Snake, King Dedede, and Link can perform the jump by damaging themselves with a C4 or Bomb, at high damage percentages.

 

A "full circle jump" is a jump that goes all the way around the temple. As of now, only [[Meta Knight]], [[Charizard]], [[Wario]] as [[Wario-Man]], [[Pit]], [[Falco]] (by grabbing a [[Green Shell|Koopa shell]], throwing it in the air, catching it, and repeating), and [[Snake]] (by using his [[bomb recovery]]) have been shown to be able to do this without landing. [[Luigi]], along with these characters can do a "half circle jump", which is a combination of the Hyrule Jump and the down under jump, going from the far-right edge to the left edge of the "fight club".

 

Jumping under other stages can also be done. The most notable is the [[Final Destination jump]]. Other stages can also be used for these kind of stunts, such as [[New Pork City Jump|New Pork City]], and [[Corneria]].

 

*If Peach wears a [[Bunny hood]], she can perform reverse Hyrule Jump.
