is wavedashing backwards to edge the best way to edgehog?
i was practicin with fox and i realized u can steal edge simply by running and then flicking the stick the other way, it was hard to do again and again, so i just tried dash dancing close to edge and that was successfull as well. is this method faster?

I've had that happen on accident several times before, but I don't find it reliable at all. With fox or falco, I generally just run up to the edge, turn around, and wavedash backwards, but a lot of people also run off the edge and do overB back into the ledge...that works well too.

I'll often do a running shine turnaround edgehog, but usually it's to hit someone with the shine, and then I just happen to be in the right place to edgehog..

for the most part though, wavedash to edgehog is going to be the quickest.

fastest way (if your perfect) is to run off the edge, shine + turn and firefox.
thats what dos does. not saying he does it perfectly though.

oh and you should firefox immediatly after the shine, so your head is eye level with the stage.

dont risk over b, to much lag.

That's my favorite method, although I don't do it often.

False, the fastest way is the way that Tempest said. Certain characters have other, more complex ways, like sheik and DK can charge cancel to turn around really fast after walking off the edge.

if your running forward and can time something within like 3 frames, yeah that little slip thing is the best.

I'd never reccomend it though.

if you run off the edge with yoshi and wait a microsecond, then double jump towards the stage you grab on to it. you're probably in the air for about 1/6 of a second. yoshi's the only one that can do this with his doublejump.
