Template:Quote2 The Cane Bounce[1] is an action that can be performed by Cranky Kong in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. It involves the use of Cranky's cane, which he can use as an improvised spring or even as a weapon. The Cane Bounce acts similar to Scrooge McDuck's pogo stick bounce from the video game DuckTales.
The move can only be performed either as Cranky Kong alone or as Cranky partnered with Donkey Kong or Funky Kong. While in mid-air, Cranky can put his cane vertically underneath him and bounce off the ground to gain height. He can also build up speed if he bounces repeatedly while going in a direction. Cranky can safely bounce with his cane on spiked floors, and in many situations, traverse it to gain access to secrets. Likewise, Cranky can use the Cane Bounce to defeat enemies that cannot be defeated normally with a stomp, such as Pointy Tucks, Tuff Tucks, and Tufftons, which protect their top sides with thorns or tough helmets.
Enemies and obstacles engulfed in fire, however, cannot be attacked with a Cane Bounce, and inflict harm on Cranky Kong. Additionally, some spiked floors have spikes that are long enough to hit Cranky Kong, even when he is using the Cane Bounce; this is most notable in the level Slippy Spikes.

- pressing
or
when the player uses the primary or secondary controls of the Wii U GamePad;
- pressing the
when the player uses only the Wii Remote;
- pressing the
when the player uses both the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk.
