Shock Spring Jump is Banjo & Kazooie's up special move. It involves the duo using a Shock Spring Pad to launch themselves into the air, able to act afterwards.
Origin
The Shock Spring Jump is a move taught to Banjo and Kazooie by Bottles in Treasure Trove Cove of Banjo-Kazooie. It allows the two to execute a super jump from green Shock Spring Pads for navigation of certain areas. The move consists of Banjo doing a jump first before Kazooie lands and builds up power based on how long the jump button is held, with the final launch being the highest jump in the game. Some Shock Spring Pads need to be created before use or are hidden out of sight, so it is not necessarily obvious that a high cliff can be scaled.
The move returns unchanged in Banjo-Tooie, though the pad has undergone a slight redesign with its gold border changed to black. When Kazooie is alone, she can use the move to get even higher than when Banjo's extra weight is present. However, it is outclassed in pure height by the new Springy Step Shoes, another limited jump maneuver.
