Bomb recovery

Bomb Recoveries are used to extend the horizontal recoveries of Link and Samus.

Samus

Samus' bomb recovery is performed by simply using her Down-B bomb lay in the air, and then laying a second bomb to hit the first and bounce herself upwards. Repeat as desired. This gives Samus the ability to recover easily from any attack, and when combined with techniques such as Samus' Grapple Beam and Rising Grapple, make edgeguarding her a serious chore.

Link

Link's Bomb recovery is reasonably difficult, but it is the best way to get the most out of your recovery with Link. Lord HDL defines it as follows:
"Bomb Recovery - Third form of recovery that involves tossing a bomb up while falling and immediately using spin attack to hit it in order to perform another spin attack or change direction for hookshot use. Cannot be done by Young Link."
There are three ways to perform the Bomb Recovery:

• While returning to the stage and falling, throw a bomb upwards, and immediately spin attack into it. The bomb should explode allowing you a second Up-B, or a hookshot (if you are not facing away).
• Use your midair jump, and immediately throw the bomb up and spin attack.
• Simply drop the bomb while falling, wait a moment, and spin attack into it.
