Jaguar Kick

The Jaguar Kick is one of Adon's signature special attacks, introduced in the Street Fighter Alpha series.

Description
Adon somersaults forward while whipping his leg around. The kick causes a slashing shockwave to form along the arc his kicking foot follows. This arc is determined by which kick button was used.

For the ground version, light kick causes a long distance to be covered by the forward jump, at low altitude, which makes a longer slash. Medium kick causes a shorter jump with higher altitude, while heavy kick makes the jump mostly vertical but the slash is almost immediate, allowing it to be used as a reversal or anti-air.

For the midair version, light kick travels the least distance and heavy kick the most, with heavy kick also having a longer slashing arc; this makes it easier (though far from certain) to hit an opponent no matter the timing.

The EX Special version introduced in the Street Fighter IV series causes a long jump like the light kick with the high slash of the heavy kick at the end. It also delivers two hits instead of one. The midair variant travels approximately the same distance as the light kick version, but has very little startup.
