Triangle Jump (三角跳び, Sankaku tobi^?) is a move used by Sonic the Hedgehog, Shadow the Hedgehog and Espio the Chameleon. It was first introduced in Sonic Heroes and appeared later in Shadow the Hedgehog. This move allows the user to jump from wall to wall in narrow spaces.

DescriptionEdit

This move is similar to the Wall Jump maneuver, except that the user can only move horizontally across the walls. When approaching two walls that are close to each other, the user must perform a Homing Attack into the wall to grab onto it. The user can then jump directly horizontally from one wall to another. Depending on the user's skills, the user can either continuously hang onto the wall or even move around on it.

This move is primarily used to cross large gaps or bottomless pit. By performing the Triangle Jump on the walls near them, while moving forward, the user can cross such obstacles.

Game AppearanceEdit
