'''Gliding''' is a new technique in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. While technically similar to [[Princess Peach|Peach]]'s glide trick in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Gliding lasts longer, and has more control. The player has to first jump, then hold the jump button, which will then make the character glide. However, the player is also able to direct it upwards or downwards. Tilting the control stick up or back will make the character glide upwards for a short while, whereas tilting the control stick down or forward will make the character glide downwards. Mastering this is apparently difficult. Also, the character cannot turn when using this, so make sure the character is pointing in the right direction, or the character may self-destruct. Gliding will stop if the player stalls in mid-air, or gets attacked. [[Charizard]], [[Meta Knight]] and [[Pit]] are all capable of using this ability, as is Kirby after Copying one of them.

Charizard, Meta Knight, and Pit gliding

Gliding is a technique in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, usable exclusively by Charizard, Meta Knight, and Pit, who all have wings. While technically similar to Peach's hovering ability, gliding lasts longer and has more control. The player can glide by holding the jump button after a midair jump (Meta Knight can also glide after using his Shuttle Loop), and is directed by tilting the control stick. Tilting the control stick up or back will make the character glide upwards for a short while, whereas tilting the control stick down or forward will make the character glide downwards. The three characters that can glide also have a glide attack. The character cannot turn around while gliding, and will stop if the player stalls in mid-air or gets attacked. In addition, gliding after using the character's final midair jump leaves that character helpless when the glide ends.

The gliding mechanic was removed for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Template:NIWA Template:SSBB moves it:Planata
