The Charlie walk, discovered by {{Sm|Fuzzyness}} in 2006 and named after his real name, is an extension of the sticky walk. The technique is executed by performing a sticky walk and then initiating the turnaround ("turnrun") animation by moving the control stick in the direction opposite the character is facing.
The Charlie walk, discovered in 2006 by {{Sm|Fuzzyness}} (whose real name is Charles), is an extension of the sticky walk. The technique is executed by performing a sticky walk and then initiating the turnaround (called "TURNRUN" in the animation debug overlay) animation by moving the control stick in the direction opposite the character is facing.


If one wants to string multiple Charlie walks into each other, the player must reverse the direction of the control stick on the frame that the turnaround animation ends. This initiates a dash, which one then must use to begin another moonwalk to repeat the entire process. If the player were to reverse the control stick earlier, the turnaround animation would end in a pivot. If the player were to reverse the control stick any later, the turnaround animation would end in a run and then another turnaround in the opposite direction.
