Does anyone have a vid link or description of how to do the newish Hop on the Dolphin high low oki?

[ChexGuy]

Involves hitting a button within a frame or two of the hopped dolphin getting hit or blocked. Button of choice for highs (typically j.S or j.H if you're going for damage/knockdown), j.2H whiff to land quickly for a low or OHK.

Best way to do it at least semi-consistently at closer distances is to double-tap your chosen button as soon as you've boarded the dolphin. It's apparently easier in Revelator, so there's that to look forward to.

^ Is that corner specific or can it be done midscreen as well?

[ChexGuy]

anywhere. there's no reason it'd be corner specific.

What do you guys typically do after a wallstick HS dolphin?

You can go for two routes from that position:

1. IAD j.K - j.H - land 2H - HVD - c.S - jc j.D - jc [char specific air route] - Ensenga. Max damage, but enemy goes away from corner. Works if HHD was like 4-5 strike of combo. 

2. IAD j.K - j.H - land 6H - hoop/ball. Less damage, but they stay in corner. 

[ChexGuy]

for that second one, you might need to sneak in a j.P between the j.K and j.H on some characters, with the amount of hits also depending on the character. not sure if you press j.P twice or press it once and let it hit twice, though. (you land a bit further away and you get a safejump)

worth noting that this is assuming you didn't sweep them before the dolphin (dolphin hits them grounded)
