Tripping

Tripping is a new technique in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, first discovered by Zauron. It seems to occur when a character is dashing in one direction, then suddenly tries to move in the other (or poorly times a dashdance); the character stumbles, falls over, and rolls to get back on their feet. A related technique is the trip cancel; when turning around, before tripping, an attack can be used to cancel the trip.
Tripping is a tentative name; it is also known as "stumbling", "ink dropping" (after Smasher Inkslinger), "pivoting" or various other names. Since it is unconfirmed, a Smash Bros. DOJO!! update concerning it may be posted, giving it an official name.
