[[File:Corkscrew1.jpg|300px|thumb|[[Donkey Kong]] attacks a [[Red Finley]] with a Corkscrew.]]
The '''Kong Corkscrew''' is an underwater special move in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. The move can be executed by any of the playable characters and can be used to attack most submerged enemies, such as [[Finley]]s and [[Gordo]]s, or to collapse flimsy structures in order to reveal items. It can be performed in place or while swimming, offering some momentum in the latter case. If [[Donkey Kong]] is alone, they can only perform one Corkscrew at a time, but if they are assisted by a partner (or if playing as [[Funky Kong]] in the [[Nintendo Switch]] port), they will be able to Corkscrew continuously.
