:::I'd also like to note that the internet in general vastly prefers "double jump", as by removing the SmashBoards restriction from the Google search, "midair jump" gets 4840 results (of which we're the top result, potentially due to us using it while not many others do?) whereas "double jump" gets 1.15 million.

:::And oh yeah changing the Google search to work on us results in 82 for "midair jump" and 153 for "double jump", so it's not like we're much different in terms of using which term.

::::Sakurai angle isn't exactly as self-explanatory sounding as "double jump", however. Tripping overlaps with slipping, mostly, so there really isn't any sort of misnomer, so we can let that slide. While it's true that double-jump overlaps with midair jump as well, I feel that midair jump is a better general term than double jump. I think "double jump" is more used in general, though, so that's why it's used more often in technique descriptions. Plus, most characters have only a second jump. This is sort of how "remix" is used instead of "cover" for songs. One is wrong, the other is used much less often. What should we go with?
