Sex kick
Sex kick is a slang term for an aerial attack that remains extended for a few moments after the initial thrust. The term was coined by Matt Deezie, though it's unknown exactly why it was so named. Almost always a neutral aerial, the signature aspect of a sex kick is that it is stronger during the initial extension and weaker afterwards; although, Dr. Mario's sex kick reverses this trend. In Brawl, the initial hit can connect for only the first frame of the attack. Other typical attributes of a sex kick include low startup time and low landing lag.
Although sex kick classically refers to only neutral aerials, smashers often extend its usage to other aerial attacks with similar properties, such as Fox's back aerial in Melee.
