A '''midair jump,''' commonly referred to as "'''double jumping'''", is a [[jumping|jump]] that can be used once every time the user is airborne. Just like the single jump, double jumping is achieved by hitting up on the control pad/stick or hitting the jump button.
A '''midair jump,''' commonly referred to as "'''double jumping'''", is a [[jumping|jump]] that can be used once every time the user is airborne. Just like the single jump, double jumping is achieved by hitting up on the [[d-pad]]/[[control stick]] or hitting the jump button.


Double jumps are a lot more varied than single jumps. Some characters twist, others flip, and there are some double jumps that do something completely different. Like jumps from the ground, characters have a different animation if they are jumping backwards. If a character flips, his or her [[collision bubble]] moves accordingly, but this hardly has an effect on the jump. There is always the slim chance that it could narrowly avoid an attack, but very unlikely considering most [[hitbox]]es are round.

Certain characters can inflate themselves ([[Kirby]], [[Jigglypuff]], [[Dedede]]) or flap their wings ([[Meta Knight]], [[Charizard]], [[Pit]]) to jump multiple times in the air. These multi-jumps become useless (or nearly useless for some) if the character is [[Metal Box|metal]].
