Description
Crack Kick in Super Street Fighter IV.
Executed by pressing forward and heavy kick, Cody turns and jump kicks the opponent in the chest, knocking the opponent into the air if it connects.
The attack is often used as part of his Dead End Irony Super Combo.
Tactics
If countered, Cody won't fall to the ground after getting hit, and will instead recover by flipping in mid-air or before touching the ground. Even then, this is normally used as a low-dodging/low-crushing attack that can also possibly approach-stuff other attacks if spaced correctly as an approaching poke.
Origin
The attack is based both on Cody's jumping attack in the original Final Fight and his special attack in the same game. However, it also bears a striking resemblance to Joe's trademark kick from the original Street Fighter.
