The Sound Wave Attack[1] (also parsed as sound-wave attack)[2] is an attack in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. Donkey Kong can perform the move by clapping, or if the player is using a Nintendo GameCube Controller, they must tilt the C Stick in any direction. Upon performing a Sound Wave Attack, Donkey Kong will hold his hand in front of him and then make a loud clap that releases a large sound wave. The sound wave is a small red ring and a large green ring. The green ring indicates the range of the sound wave, while the red ring represents the range of Donkey Kong's reach. If any enemies are hit by the sound wave, they will be briefly stunned. Unlike normal claps, the Sound Wave Attack does not allow Donkey Kong to grab any nearby items such as bananas.
