A '''hilldash''' is a [[wavedash|pseudo-wavedash]] advanced technique for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It is done by jumping (or already being in the air), then, by whatever method, gaining momentum towards a hill or slant in order to land on it and use the momentum to slide across the ground and up the hill. Characters with odd double-jumps, such as Ness or Yoshi, can do it by jumping, then quickly double jumping into the hill to gain momentum.  Another method of doing the hilldash is by using some sort of speed-altering move, such as Captain Falcon's [[Raptor Boost]]. There are also other methods, like Peach floating into a hill.

It is done by jumping (or already being in the air), then, by whatever method, gaining momentum towards a hill or slant in order to land on it and use the momentum to slide across the ground and up the hill. Characters with delayed double-jumps, such as Ness or Yoshi, can do it by jumping, then quickly double jumping into the hill to gain momentum.  Another method of doing the hilldash is by using some sort of speed-altering move, such as Captain Falcon's [[Raptor Boost]].

The hilldash has multiple applications. The most direct application is sliding along the ground quickly and, sometimes, in a standing position. However, the slide is not very far for all characters, and lag from the hilldash, along with hard set-up for a hilldash and slow speed for some characters makes the slide more work than it's worth. Another, possibly more useful application for some characters could be the immediate transition from a dashing motion to a standing position, opening up options such as [[smash attack|smashes]]. The hilldash can also be used for [[mindgames]]. However, the hilldash is only usable on certain stages with slopes, most notably [[Corneria]] and [[Yoshi's Island (SSBM)|Yoshi's Island (Melee)]]. It can also be done on [[Lylat Cruise]], [[Green Hill Zone]], [[Pirate Ship]], and others.
