A '''Tech''', officially referred to as an '''Ukemi''' in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], is an action performed when the character hits the ground, a wall, or a ceiling while tumbling or in hitstun. To tech, the user must press '''L''' or '''R''' 20 [[frames]] or fewer before hitting the surface; after that, a player won't be able to tech for 40 frames. Other button or control stick input can cause different types of techs.

The word "[[wikipedia:Ukemi|Ukemi]]" refers to a rolling technique used in Japanese martial arts when taking an attack. The name has found its way into several (mostly fighting) games, such as Soul Calibur, to describe similar fall recovery moves.
