'''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]]'', Glidinggliding 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, theThe 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 makegliding sureoff the characterstage is pointingalways ina thepotential right direction, or the character may self-destructdanger. Gliding will stop if the player stalls in mid-air, or gets attacked. [[Charizard]], [[Meta Knight]] and [[Pit]] are allthe capableonly ofcharacters usingwho thisare abilityable to glide.
