'''Wings of Icarus''' is [[Pit]]'s [[up special move|third jump]] (really a 5th jump). This makes his wings glow a blue color, and gives him the ability to fly for approximately 3 seconds. The initial "flash" will stop a [[projectile]] for a split second, but interrupt the move. It also [[push]]es enemies and items away. When this move is done in midair, Pit may slightly lose altitude.

This move is arguably one of the best recovery moves in the game, as Pit is capable of flying up past the upper blast line (without being [[KO]]ed, as he is not in a stunned animation), and flying around the bottom of most stages with this move alone. He can even pull off the [[Hyrule Jump#Reverse Hyrule Jump|Reverse Hyrule Jump]] using only the Wings of Icarus. The move can take Pit even higher if performed from the ground.
