Super Peel Out

The Super Peel Out,Sonic the Hedgehog CD (Sega CD) United States instruction booklet, pg. 8. also known as the , the Charged Dash, or simply the , is a move that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. When performing this technique, the user moves their legs in a specific circle pattern, while remaining stationary, before taking off at higher-than-average speeds.
==Description==
When performing this move, the user bends down slightly in a standing position and begins moving their legs in a specific pattern to build up speed, all while remaining still in one spot. Once they have built up enough speed, the user blasts forwards at extreme speeds.
In gameplay, like the Spin Dash, the Super Peel Out allows the user to attain great speeds from a standing start. As such, the move lets the user reach higher speeds that the Spin Dash can. The user can also continue to accelerate without first jumping to get out of their Spin Attack position. The Super Peel Out will then last until the user either jumps or slows down.
The main disadvantage of the Super Peel Out is that, unlike the Spin Dash, the user does not perform a Spin Attack while performing this move and it cannot damage enemies.

==Trivia ==
*If Sonic charges the move for thirty seconds in Sonic Chaos, sparkling stars begin to appear around Sonic and eventually Sonic will get temporary invincibility. If the player releases the button, Sonic starts running forward with temporary Invincibility until the player slows down. A similar feature is also seen in Sonic the Hedgehog Triple Trouble, but starts happening right after the player starts performing the move.
* In Sonic Mania Plus, while playing as Sonic in Mania Mode with the "CD" option enabled, the player can use Debug Mode to place a special, Character-like Item Box to switch to another character, who will be able to perform the Super Peel Out as well. This allows Tails, Knuckles, Mighty, Ray, and their respective Super States to perform the technique as well. However, this effect is not permanent and will wear off when the player either loses a life; enters a Special Stage, Bonus Stage or Pinball Stage; or beats the Act.
*"Peel-out" is a racing term used to describe when a car stays stationary and causes the tires to heat up and release smoke.
