'''Zap Jumping''' is an advanced technique that doubles the height of [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]]'s [[second jump]]. It was discovered by Christopher Daniel Winans. | '''Zap Jumping''' is an advanced technique that doubles the height of [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]]'s [[second jump]].

{{SSBB|Ness}} is also strangely affected by using [[PK Fire]] with his [[second jump]]. When the two moves are used simultaneously, he will be propelled forward and slightly higher. This makes for a great [[approach]] and extends the [[special attack|special]] considerably, and can also be used for [[recovery]], acting as a barrier against opponents [[edgeguard]]ing from below. This works in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' as well. | {{SSBB|Ness}} is also strangely affected by using [[PK Fire]] with his [[second jump]].

A variation of this maneuver, known as the '''Firebound''', combines the mechanics of the PK Jump and B-sticking. By pressing the B-stick backwards while holding forward and double jumping, the player will shoot backward; a defensive maneuver. This works in ''SSB4'' as well. | A variation of this maneuver, known as the '''Firebound''', combines the mechanics of the PK Jump and B-sticking.

This technique can be executed by playing as Lucas on any stage, and have Lucas grab any [[item]]. Then Lucas should [[jump]], and throw the item that he holds upward at the same time as he [[double jump]]s. Note that the item used does not have to be a throwing item; battering and shooting items can also be used as well. As with Lucas's PK Fire Zap Jump, attempting to perform this technique in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' results in the upward ascent of Lucas's double jump being weakened altogether instead of getting boosted, rendering the technique ineffective. | This technique can be executed by playing as Lucas on any stage, and have Lucas grab any [[item]].

Similar to Lucas's PK Fire Zap Jump and upward item throw Zap Jump, except that Lucas has to use his [[grab aerial]] and double jump at the same time instead of using a PK Fire or throwing an item upward.

A much easier method of increasing Ness's midair jump height exists exclusively in ''SSB4'', and involves air dodging as Ness uses his midair jump. Dubbed "PSI Floating," this will increase the jump's height by around 25%. This is exclusive to Ness, as attempting to perform it with Lucas or Mewtwo will actually lower their jump height | A much easier method of increasing Ness's midair jump height exists exclusively in ''SSB4'', and involves air dodging as Ness uses his midair jump.
