— In-game description

Moveset

Link's C1, C2, C3, and C4 will kick his Spinner out afterwards, with Link summoning a new one for himself. Link can have up to three Spinners out at once, which each remain for around 20 seconds before vanishing. When struck with one of Link's Combo Attacks, a placed Spinner will perform a different attack.

Attack Explanation
Base String? Link performs a series of seven attacks; he does a forward hop, does a second, larger hop, rides the Spinner in a circle, performs a front flip before slamming down, quickly charges forward, spins in a zig-zag pattern forward, and performs another quick charge.
C1? Link kicks the Spinner out in front of him. When hitting a placed Spinner, it is sent charging forward.
C2? Link jumps up and slams down onto the Spinner, creating a shockwave around him that knocks enemies in front of Link upward. When hitting a placed Spinner, it is sent charging forward at a great velocity, increasing the speed and hitbox.
C3? Link enlarges the Spinner before charging forward a short distance; the direction can be controlled. When hitting a placed Spinner, it is sent charging forward with a tornado on top.
C4? Link jumps up with the Spinner in hand, charges it with elemental power, and slams to the ground, creating an electric blast around him. When hitting a placed Spinner, it burrows into the ground and charges forward in a straight line.
C5? Link enlarges the Spinner, charges it with elemental power, then jumps and slams down on it, creating an electric blast around him. When hitting a placed Spinner, it becomes electrified and charges around in a spiral formation.
C6? Link flips his Spinner into the air, sending out three large electric pulses and enlarging the Spinner, before punching it, causing the Spinner to charge forward at a high velocity. When hitting a placed Spinner, it explodes.
Special Attack Link sends out two Spinners, before charging into them with his own, sending the two Spinners charging forward while engulfed in electricity before they eventually explode.
Focus Spirit Finisher Manual: Link jumps up, charges his Spinner, before driving it into the ground like a drill, creating an explosion of electricity.
Automatic: Link summons a Spinner track pillar, rides to the top, and slams to the ground, creating an explosion of electricity.
