A '''wallbounce''', sometimes abbreviated to '''wounce''' or known as '''Super Walljumps''' in the game files, is a mechanic that's introduced in {{ch|7b|lf=1}} B-Side, and used through the C-Sides ({{ch|3c}} through {{ch|7c}}) and {{ch|9|lf=1}}. It's a special type of walljump that's done by dashing upwards next to a wall, and jumping away from it while [[Madeline]] still has the dash momentum. It allows the player to reach greater heights and to jump over tall obstacles.

A wallbounce as depicted in the Celeste manual.

A wallbounce, sometimes abbreviated to wounce or known as Super Walljumps in the game files, is a tech introduced in Summit B-Side, and used through the C-Sides (3C through 7C) and Farewell. It's a special type of walljump that's done by dashing upwards next to a wall and jumping away from it while Madeline still has the dash momentum. It allows the player to reach greater heights and jump over tall obstacles.
