The Long Jump (called Leap on the official Super Mario 3D Land website[1]) is a special move in the 3D Mario platformers (except for Super Mario Sunshine, because of F.L.U.D.D.) and Donkey Kong 64. To use this move, the player must Crouch while in motion and Jump, causing the character to jump a long horizontal distance.

It is possible to start moving backwards after the initial jump, a maneuver that can activate many in-game glitches.

There is also a variation of Long Jump called the Double Kick, and can be done in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. This move can defeat enemies and activate items.

In Super Mario Run, characters can Long Jump by tapping a screen while on a yellow block with an arrow on it.
