The Jump Strike is a sword technique from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. One of the Hidden Skills, it is a more powerful version of the Jump Attack. It is designed to give Link an advantage while confronting groups of enemies. He can draw his sword and hold the hilt in both hands. When the enemies are within range, he jumps up, slashing his blade up in an arc. When the sword hits the ground, it creates a small shockwave, damaging the enemies and knocking them off their feet. It is performed by holding the A button while L-targeting, then releasing when a glint of light rises up Link's sword.
