◆ When to use it

The match situation that makes this worth the boost cost.

Anywhere a flip would burn the flip-reset for an upcoming play. Wave dashes preserve dodge.

◆ Failure mode

What goes wrong at sub-target ranks.

Landed too flat — wave dash needs a 15–20° wheel-down angle to convert vertical into forward speed.

◆ Training path

How to drill it for max reps per minute.

Free-play. Wave dash off every small pad. The drill is consistency, not max speed.
