Short hop fast fall

Short hop fast fall, commonly abbreviated as "SHFF" , is a technique in Super Smash Bros. Brawl which enables the player to land aerials quickly. For some characters, such as Marth, SHFF will play a huge role in their game as it is an effective way of spacing, edge-guarding and applying pressure to the opponent.

Due to the removal of L-canceling in Brawl, the SHFF is the closest substitute to SHFFLing in Melee.

To use this technique, the player must first do a short hop. They must then do an aerial attack, and quickly fast fall.
