Wind Roll, occasionally referred to as Clockwise Evasive Spin by players and known as Rolling in Japan, is a stance used by both Michelle Chang since Tekken 2 and her daughter Julia Chang since Tekken 3. Jaycee can also use this stance in Tekken Tag Tournament 2.
By default, the user spins in an anti-clockwise direction to the right side. But pressing the "up" directional button along with the move's command will allow the user to spin in clockwise direction to the left.
Originally, the attack's only purpose was to step to the side and was one of the few moves to do so in Tekken 2, with the only follow-up possible being a basic right kick. Because its utility was rendered near worthless by the introduction of the Sidestep in the following game, the move was reanimated in Tekken 5 and turned into a stance instead.
