Sword canceling can be used to sword fly by positioning one player (''Person A'') in the position the other player (''Person B'') wishes to reach. ''Person B'' should have an empty [[Rocket Launcher]] and an Energy Sword. ''Person A'' should jump repeatedly; ''Person B'' should repeatedly sword cancel at ''Person A''; they will eventually pass through the invisible wall and reach ''A''<nowiki/>'s location.

==~~= Partner bouncing =~~==

== Butterflying ==

~~Another use for~~ sword ~~canceling~~ is ~~partner bouncing: the usage of sword canceling to propel two players upward.~~

The primary form of sword glitching is known under various names, including '''butterflying''', '''sword climbing''', and less commonly, '''partner bouncing'''. The trick involves having one player stand on top of the other, with the bottom player wielding an Energy Sword. The top player jumps repeatedly, while the bottom player sword cancels repeatedly. The combined actions cause the two players to climb through the air.

~~One player (''Person A'') should jump on top of another player (~~''~~Person B~~''). ''~~Person B'' should have an Energy Sword out~~, ~~and should look at and aim at~~ ''~~Person A''.~~ ''~~Person A~~'' ~~should jump into the air~~, and ~~''Person B'' should sword cancel (using '''B'''+'''X''') at them; when ''Person B'' reaches ''Person A''~~, ''A'' ~~should then jump off of their head, at which point~~ ''~~B'' should sword cancel again..~~.

The ~~process may be repeated to reach higher and higher locations; provided that both players' lateral positions remain unchanged (such that ''Person A'' remains exactly above ''Person B'')~~, the ~~trick may be repeated almost endlessly~~. ~~It cannot be used to bypass invisible ceilings~~, ~~however.~~

~~Pressing '''B'''+'''X''' requires that a~~ player ~~use their index and middle fingers~~. ~~Some~~ players ~~prefer~~ to ~~use '''Y'''+'''A''', which is easier but more dangerous to ''Person A'' if a mistake is used -- it may result in ''Person A'' being hit in~~ the ~~back and killed~~.

Rocket canceling does not work in ''Halo 3''.

~~== Sword Climbing ==~~

The third form of sword glitching is the sword climb, also known as butterflying. To sword climb, you need two people willing to work together. They should stand right next to each other and look at each other. Then, at the same time, they should both hit '''X'''+'''A'''+'''B''' repeatedly. The method can allow them to climb through the air.
