The downthrow is a part of Mario's movement and a variation of [[cap throw]]. While being very useful for reaching distant objects with Cappy, downthrows are commonly seen in [[trickjumping]] as part of an [[up-down vault]]. A unique property of downthrows is that Cappy will stick to the ground if it hits a slope.
A '''downthrow''' is a type of [[cap throw]] that allows the player to throw Cappy downwards. If Cappy hits the ground before extending fully, he will move continue forwards along the ground. Downthrows are often used in [[trickjumping]] as part of an [[up-down vault]].


==Execution==
==Execution==
There are two methods for executing a downthrow. The first method consists of performing a [[ground pound]] followed by performing a [[cap throw]] by shaking the controller downwards or pressing X/Y after releasing the [[ground pound]] button. If the ground pound button is not released before the [[cap throw]] is performed, Mario will initiate a [[roll]] instead of a downthrow.

The second method for executing a downthrow requires the use of a pair of Joy-Cons. It consists of shaking the controller downwards, which will cause a regular [[motion-controlled cap throw]] if done without using a pair of Joy-Cons.
