Mario's sex kick in Brawl.

A "sex kick" is an aerial attack which remains extended for a few moments after the initial thrust. The term was coined by smasher Matt Deezie as a sexual innuendo referring to the properties of the attack in the original Super Smash Bros. A visual sex kick consists of the thrust (kicking motion) and the extension (leg remaining out), with the other leg bent and the foot tucked beneath the kicking leg's thigh. Sex kick mechanics in more recent games include attacks that do not resemble kicks.

Sex kicks are almost always a neutral aerial, though sometimes a back aerial.

Properties of sex kicks include:

  • Single hit attack.
  • Stronger during first few frames, but weaker during later frames. (The exception being Dr. Mario's which is weaker in the first few frames)
  • Almost no startup lag and landing lag.
  • Long hitbox duration.
  • Similar animation and hitbox placement throughout entire attack.

Although the term 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.

Every character in SSB has one sex kick: their neutral aerial. The two exceptions are Donkey Kong, whose sex kick is his back aerial, and Fox, whose neutral and back aerial are both sex kicks, making Fox the only character with two sex kicks.
