-Dashing shield is a technique avaliable in SSBB.  It is performed by dashing then hitting shield.  It will result in a short slide from the dashing momentum.  Out of this, a few things can be done such as a dashing shield grab.  The dashing shield can also help with mind games.  For example, a dash can be started then be cancled with a shield possibly tricking your opponent into attacking leaving them open for an attack.
+The '''dashing shield''' is a [[technique]] available in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It is performed by using one's [[shield]] during a run (but not during the initial dash animation in ''Brawl''), which results in a short slide from the dashing momentum. The burst of momentum is much greater in ''Smash 64'', especially with {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}'s initial dash animation, which travels very far. Sliding versions of [[OoS]] techniques can result from this, such as a dashing shield grab.  The dashing shield can also help with feints. For example, a player can dash toward an opponent, feigning a rush, and then shield; the opponent may fall for the feint and try to retaliate, leaving him or her open to the rusher's real attack. The dashing shield can also be used similarly to the [[dash-cancel]] from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.
