A sideways-flipping kick. Falco's legs have intangibility during the hitboxes. This move is comparable to Fox's up smash, although this one has more hits while overall less powerful. Update 1.1.4 buffed this move drastically, making it a more reliable move that is less likely to allow an escape before the final kick. KOs at around 120%, making it a relatively weak smash attack.
