When the player shakes the {{button|wii|Wiimote}}, Donkey Kong starts to perform a [[Roll Attack|roll attack]]. As he rolls, Diddy runs along on top of Donkey Kong to keep his momentum. Like the simple roll and [[Cartwheel Attack]], the Kong Roll can be used to eliminate most enemies in the [[Kong]]s' path, and it is faster than the Kongs' normal movement speed. Unlike the two other moves, the Kong Roll continues for as long as the player keeps shaking the {{button|wii|Wiimote}}. The Kong Roll also shares the base Roll's ability to increase the distance that the Kongs can [[jump]] across and the ability to jump out of the roll even if there is no ground beneath them; in some cases, such Kong Rolls are required for obtaining a [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]]. | ||

In the alternate Control Pad based control scheme, the {{button|3ds|L}} and {{button|3ds|R}} buttons do the same. | ||
