Description
Executed by charging backward then pressing forward and kick, Blanka backflips backwards and then rapidly somersaults in a high arc forward. How high and far the somersault goes depends on the kick button pressed; light kick performs the smallest jump, heavy kick performs the biggest and medium kick "balances" in between them. The EX Special version introduced in Street Fighter IV allows the player to control the arc of the jump and where Blanka lands.
Tactics
Due to its arc pattern, this move is somewhat good to avoid horizontal projectiles. If Blanka hits the opponent, they will be sent flying while Blanka bounces off of them to a safe distance; this bounce to safety occurs even if the attack is blocked, making the move a relatively safe tactic from a distance. However, Blanka is vulnerable during the backflip, and so the move is not usually a good idea at close range. Finally, because of the height of the attack, the move has considerable cross-up potential, particularly the EX Backstep Roll.
