This is where someone in a battle begins to jump around and perform gymnastics-heavy moves in order to dodge bullets or other physical attacks. They will do back handsprings, push off of walls, do twists in mid-air and find safety without getting a single scratch. This does not make them invincible, just very hard to hit. Usually seen with characters that are smaller in size, more flexible, and, more often than not, they will also have either a martial arts or some type of military background. In fight scenes, this can be used to get characters from a position where they are at a disadvantage (usually out in the open) to a place of safety (behind a wall) or closer to their opponent for an attack. In addition, this style of movement is visually appealing and is used to add a bit of flair to combat scenes. Sometimes this is used when a new character is introduced and they need to stand apart from the rest by having a unique skill set. If this happens, they may make an appearance as the Sixth Ranger, using this trope to show that they have considerable skill and coordination in comparison to other characters. Similarly, if this is a common tactic of a younger character (especially one that is hotheaded), the purpose is to demonstrate their physical capabilities and establish that this is someone with potential. As this trope thrives on Rule of Cool, it may also involve use of Wire Fu and Bullet Time effects in live action shows and movies, to showcase every angle, and so the audience can keep up with all of the action. It also pairs naturally with Flynning and Interesting Situation Duels to create dynamic fights even as the combatants do very little actual harm to each other. Acrofatic characters and practitioners of She-Fu and Gun Fu are naturals at this trope. However, the character needn't be a martial artist to exemplify the trope, as the Gentleman Thief and Classy Catburglar are also prime candidates, when action-oriented. Characters who use Combat Parkour are quite likely to apply The Power of Acting to get an upper hand as well. For an actual entry on Parkour, see the supertrope Le Parkour. |

X-23's fighting style is much more acrobatic than her genetic father, Wolverine, and in many of her fight scenes, she can be seen using flips and handstands to bring her foot claws into play. Her father couldn't fight this way if he wanted to, because his adamantium skeleton adds over 100 pounds to his weight, while X-23 (who only has adamantium claws, as well as lacking his stocky build) is about 1/3 his weight. | |

X-Men: Nightcrawler capitalizes on his circus training combined with his prehensile tail to achieve this. This is one of Gambit's specialties, allowing him to take advantage of his slightly enhanced agility. X-23's fighting style is much more acrobatic than her genetic father, Wolverine, and in many of her fight scenes, she can be seen using flips and handstands to bring her foot claws into play. Her father couldn't fight this way if he wanted to, because his adamantium skeleton adds over 100 pounds to his weight, while X-23 (who only has adamantium claws, as well as lacking his stocky build) is about 1/3 his weight. |

Sluggy Freelance: Oasis and Kusari are "gymnastic" martial artists/assassins — or at least Oasis is called that, and Kusari is like her. They're flipping around all the time. Oasis in particular has shown that trying to use More Dakka on her is basically Shooting Superman. Teresa (Slaughteresa) employes some similar moves, and she actually has an in-universe noted partial but suspiciously close physical resemblance to Oasis, though she's not superhuman like her. Bun-bun the evil and badass mini-lop may not do a lot of flipping, but he's constantly bouncing when fighting and almost impossible to hit. |

This is Yuzu's preferred fighting style in the Bleach fanfic Chasing the Moon (and its prequel and sequel). She isn't actually hard to defeat once she does get hit, and the few times she sustained serious injury ended the battle immediately, but she tends to make herself hard to hit. Being a Master of Illusion probably helps with that regard. This is in contrast to her twin, who is Made of Iron. | |

In RWBY this is Team RWBY's (and most other females) main shtick. They use their weapon's gun form's recoil to speed up their attacks and use their blade form's edge to hold on to obstacles or terrain to maneuver mid-flight to allow for high-speed attacks and movement. This is best shown during "Players and Pieces", where they have to survive a fall to a forest using only their weapons. | |

Chaka of the Whateley Universe specializes in this style of fighting. Justified in that her ki powers make it extraordinarily easy for her to do so. In her first superhero fight with a bunch of ninjas, she drives her opponent up the wall by dodging his attacks with a series of flips. Given the school's heavy emphasis on survival skills and combat training, there is a lot of training given in the effective use of terrain in general, both for fighting and for evasion. Parkour-based evasion techniques are a core part of the Survival courses given to students who aren't inclined towards combat. It is also the preferred fighting style of many Badass Normal superheroes and supervillains, such as the various individuals who have taken up the mantle of The Swashbuckler (the Swashbuckler active with the California Crusaders in 2006 is the fourth, while the second Swashbuckler, who was active from the mid-1950s to the late 1970s, is Walking the Earth looking for a worthy pupil to pass his skills on to). |

He also uses it to leave behind fights he has no reason to actually get into, to take his opponents by surprise, and to diffuse situations before they escalate into actual fights via intimidation. | |

In Peter Parker/Spider-Man's combat scenes in both Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming, he does almost nothing but acrobatics, both for offense and defense. Justified in that he has powers that give him a superior sense of agility and equilibrium, and that he's untrained in hand-to-hand combat. | |

While T'Challa (a.k.a. Black Panther) from Black Panther (2018) isn't excessively acrobatic, he's certainly bouncier than the majority of his foes, and generally has at least one airborne move per fight. Killmonger's fighting style is much the same, and he also fits this trope. | |

The TV branch of the MCU contains a few: In Agent Carter, Leviathan agent "Dottie Underwood" uses this in combination with her general Dance Battler demeanor. Makes sense, as she is implied to be a part of the Black Widow program, which specifically includes ballet as part of the combat training. Daredevil (2015): Matt Murdock will never walk straight towards an enemy or use a simple, effective attack if he has the option to bounce off the walls or do flashy somersaults, flips, and spinning jump kicks instead. |

Dungeons & Dragons. In 2nd Edition, use of the Tumbling non-weapon proficiency improved the user's armor class by 4 (making them harder to hit) and gave them a plus 2 to their chance to hit in unarmed combat. In 3rd Edition the Tumble skill can be used to avoid attacks of opportunity when moving past (or through) an opponent. Pathfinder, as a spinoff of 3rd Edition, retains this option, though the skill is called Acrobatics and it's much harder to pull off. | |

Mortal Kombat: Sonya Blade does this, despite having Kenpo and Tae Kwon Do as her fighting styles in previous games. Her signature move is doing a backflip, grabbing the opponent between her legs, and throwing them. She also uses this move to break Kano's neck in one of the movie versions, and in Mortal Kombat 4 she has a fatality where she does a handstand and tears the opponent in half with her legs. There's also Li Mei. Nitara's Unicorn Kick special is the deadliest cartwheel you'll ever see. Unlike Sub-Zero, who slides around Iceman-style to escape from sticky situations |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Suki demonstrates great Parkour skill by running over people's heads, climbing up walls, swinging over railings and sliding under people, almost entirely avoiding direct confrontation until she reaches the warden of Boiling Rock. Also, the main character, Aang, uses parkour to evade attacks. See the first and second episodes. Ty Lee has no Bending ability, she carries no weapons, she's a skinny perky cutie ... and she can totally incapacitate you by hitting you in the pressure points while remaining impossible to hit because of her acrobatic and gymnastic skills. |

Batman: Batman makes use of this. Especially in a confined space surrounded by thugs, at which time he is forced to twist, pounce, and perform somersaults and back handsprings to narrowly dodge attacks coming from multiple directions. Then once out of danger he makes a few attacks of his own to defeat them. Nightwing is quite flexible and agile because of his circus background. Robin Tim Drake may not be as acrobatic as his elder brother but Nightwing's influence on his training is regularly evident even if Tim's preferred style of fighting is based around the use of his bo staff. |

Airachnid, being part spider, is consistently using the walls and ceiling around her to gain an advantage over her opponents, especially when they are larger than her.

My Hero Academia has multiple examples. Katsuki Bakugo whose Quirk is, Explosion, will often use varying levels of explosions to move around during fights to both avoid attacks and maneuver around his opponents. Gran Torino has the Quirk, Jet, that allows him to expel the air that he breathes from the soles of his feet. His primary fighting style is to jump around the area, bouncing off walls, floors, and ceilings in order to disorientate his opponent and attack them when they're off balance. His Quirk also allows him to jump in mid-air allowing him to do this even in open spaces. Izuku Midoriya adopted both of these styles when he created his Full Cowl technique that allows him to use the Super-Strength and Super-Speed power of One For All throughout his body. This actually becomes a plot point in two instances. First when Bakugo notices that Midoriya successfully copied him, which causes him to fall further into his Inferiority Superiority Complex. The Second is when Midoriya first meets Sir Nighteye, who notes how he copied Gran Torino and uses it to mock Midoriya on why he is an inferior successor to One For All. |

Devil May Cry: Devil May Cry 2: Dante and Lucia can roll, dodge enemy attacks or run along walls during battle. The game's style system is even based on dodging. Lucia's fighting style in particular focuses on acrobatic movements like flip kicks and spinning handstand kicks. Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening takes it to the next level. On a Double Jump, you can flip upside down, spin and shoot, flip back up, flip upside down AGAIN, spin and shoot, and flip back up in time to land on your feet. Similar, if not even more extravagant, maneuvers are also possible in Devil May Cry 4. |

Maki of Air Master; in her past she was a world-class gymnast. Unlike most instances of this trope, however, at least once it definitely loses a fight for her — after an astonishing spinning, flipping thing which basically whips her martial artist father, she sticks the landing by reflex. He takes advantage of that moment to get her in a lock and take the victory. | |

Spider-Man: This is Spider-Man's specialty. As a consequence of his powers, he fights reflexively. However he is extraordinarily limber and agile, so by reflex he jumps, twirls, twists, and contorts all over the place to dodge blows and missiles. note This doesn't really stop Spider-Man from taking severe blows. Indeed, almost every videogame starring him features a costume selection that is torn up and ravaged from all the damage he takes during the game. Because of his Spider-Sense, he's never really blind-sided, but his enemies just tend to be that fast and powerful. Often the Spider-Sense doesn't prevent him from getting hit, just from getting killed. Spidey's so well known for this that many people (both in and out of universe, including Peter himself) sometimes forget that he's also got Super-Strength. Black Cat also exhibits this, being able to keep up with Spider-Man even when she is a Badass Normal in terms of strength and agility. She's a bit slower when human but makes up for it in gracefulness, and when she has her bad-luck power, making her enemies trip up. |

As with her comics incarnation, Laura practices this extensively in Logan, using the terrain, her own acrobatics skills, and even other mooks just to reach targets that are on average twice her size. Considering she's a tiny eleven year old girl and thus not able to sustain the same level of punishment as Logan, she also uses it to just plain not get hit, flipping, cartwheeling, and somersaulting through return fire. Her acrobatics also help her bring her foot claws into play, turning her into a whirling, adamantium-coated human blender. | |

This was one of the original concepts for Mirror's Edge, as seen in this concept art.◊ Even though, in the final game, it was replaced with more realistic free running it is still possible to do with a lot of practice. This trope appears in Catalyst in the form of "Traversal Attacks". They do a lot of damage, but enemies have to be in position and just hitting them until they go down is generally faster. |

Lili from Tekken has stylish balletic moves, with liberal use of flips. And a move where she does an aerial somersault; if she lands on the opponent's head, she does a double snap kick in the air. | |

In Warcraft (2016), Garona hops and spins a lot when fighting. She's a third of most of her enemies' size, so this is pretty much the only way she can hit them where it hurts. | |

GURPS 3rd Edition. The Acrobatics skill allows the user to make an Acrobatic Dodge, a jump or roll that avoids an attack in a flashy way. This is made a skill on it's own in 4th edition and when added to martial arts or superpowers becomes this trope. |

Sakura Kasugano from Street Fighter uses a front flip to dodge or get behind opponents. Street Fighter V introduces Rashid, a flashy acrobat of a fighter who — weirdly enough — has "Parkour" listed as his official fighting style. |

Unreal Tournament 2003 was the first installment of the Unreal franchise with this. While even the first game had dodging (including the forward dodge being a somersault), 2003 went really wild with it, introducing moves like kicking off a wall into a sideways flip. Some maps even have spots that require a walldodge to traverse. And yes, the bots do use them. | |

Kingdom Hearts: Aqua in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. Her male friend Terra gets a long-distance forward dash, and her "little brother" Ven gets the series-standard "Dodge Roll" somersault. Not Aqua. She cartwheels away from enemies. Larxene as well. Her gameplay and battle style are full of this, especially in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Flips, cartwheels, mid-air spins and mid-air drilling, somersaults, etc. Xemnas, the Big Bad of Kingdom Hearts II, fights this way, flipping and spinning like crazy in his boss battles. In the final battle, it'd be a Free-Fall Fight if you weren't able to Double Jump and swerve around in mid-air as if there was something to push off against. |

Yumi from Code Lyoko frequently uses such moves when fighting in the virtual world, thanks to her increased agility and the low gravity of Lyoko. This allows her to use backflips frequently in combat. | |

John Morrison. Which has been played up by the commentators a lot, check it out. It helps that the practice is actually part of his training. Said training did him a lot of favors at the Royal Rumble, where he proved to be about as hard to eliminate as Kofi Kingston, if not more so. | |

In the anime Noir, Kirika is one of the two most lethal human beings on Earth. Her sheer ability to dodge bullets, and general use of acrobatics, enter her into this category. | |
