Topic: Moonsault


  
  Moonsault - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In a standard moonsault, which is generally attempted from the top rope, a wrestler faces away from the prone opponent and executes a backflip landing on the opponent in a splash/press position but facing towards the elevated position.
When a springboard moonsault is performed onto an opponent on the floor outside the ring, rather than one in the ring, it is called an Asai moonsault, named after the man who popularised its use in modern wrestling Yoshihiro Asai, better known in the United States by his ring name Ăšltimo Dragon.
This moonsault variation sees the performer jump to the top turnbuckle before then dropping down so that they can split their legs onto the top rope which is coming into that turnbuckle post using the impact of their thighs on the rope to flip themselves backwards and on to a prone opponent.

When there was nothing else he could do, he would finally sacrifice himself with the moonsault.

 Quebrada Issue 63C
These were incredibly nasty landings, to the point where she was lucky she wasn't the next Nobutaku Araya (he broke his neck when he didn't get all the way over on his moonsault finisher).
Since she is always going down, she has a lot less time to do any flips, spins, or turns in the air, and that's when things can get dangerous because neck injuries, which luckily she didn't suffer here, are a very serious matter.
As far as the second moonsault goes, she was obviously still stunned from the first, so she shouldn't have even tried it," wrote Chris.

I'd expect the forces on Moonsault Scramble were higher than on the B&M flyers due to the way you enter and exit the inversions.
On Moonsault Scramble's Pretzel Knot you are swept off to the left/right depending on which direction you are going, whereas on Superman, you enter and exit on a straight line.
The twisted entrance and exit would clearly be more forceful, because your body is being pulled out of the line in which it wants to travel by the track.

 SF III Series: Your Character Strategy - Neo-Geo Forums
Neutral hp is a great overhead, and a pivotal part of Hugo's mixup game (along with crouching mk and his moonsault press when out of the other character's throwing range).
Moonsault press is Hugo's main weapon, but you really have to work to land it against most decent characters - and that work usually involves parrying or wakeup presses.
If they jump in, try to get a feel for whether they'll be kicking or jumping in empty, and then parry to moonsault or step back and moonsault as needed.
