techniques: dash jump

Pure distance technique, used to cross gaps slightly too large for a space jump.

Start by holding L and locking on to a target. When ready, hold left or right and press B, then hold R some time before Samus has fully taken off from the first jump. Keep L/R and the direction held until you land, using your second jump whenever to increase distance.

In some places, it's better (or necessary) to dash at an angle. This is done by holding up or down after the dash has started, causing you to slowly move forward or back while still going left or right at the same velocity. This is known as "bending" the dash.
