Heel Slide

Heel Slide is a technique Bayonetta can learn in the Bayonetta games, and her side special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Bayonetta slides across the ground in a kick attack. By holding down the special attack button for the duration of the move, Bayonetta follows up with a vertical kick that knocks opponents into the air.

If used in the air, the attack is called After Burner Kick, another technique that Bayonetta can learn from the games. Bayonetta kicks diagonally up, and if it hits an opponent the move can be used a second time. If the player holds down on the control stick before performing After Burner Kick, the attack instead sends Bayonetta kicking diagonally downward.
