The '''Footstool Jump''' is a new technique in ''[[SSBB]]''. When a character is directly above another character, they can press the jump button to bounce off of the character's head, similar to [[Mario]] jumping on a [[Goomba (enemy)|Goomba]]. When used in midair, it also functions as a [[Meteor Smash]]. It does no damage, and can be used up to four times in succession, with each jump resulting in approximately half the rebound.

The move is very similar to one seen in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and in ''Kirby And The Amazing Mirror'', where one player is able to get a large jump by doing so off of their partner's or another Kirby's head.

A Footstool Jump is a special move added in Brawl which any character can perform. To do a Footstool Jump, one simply needs to land on another character's head.
