The G&W boards have named this technique "Bucket Braking", since bucket-cancelling is something different.
****************

After you escape hitstun with an aerial, using a Jump or momentum-changing Special will give you a boost away from the stage, proportional to the amount of knockback that's pushing you away. This is designed so that moves like Fox's Shine can't be used to stop moves from killing at ridiculous percents.

However, it turns out that the designers forgot to implement this for three Specials:
1. G&W's down-B
2. Yoshi's side-B
3. DK's up-B

This allows you to survive in some ridiculous conditions!!
