The ability to negate friction. Sub-Power of Friction Manipulation. Variation of Negation. Opposite to Friction Generation.

Also Called

  • Frictional Force Negation
  • Frictional Negation
  • Frictionless Negation

Capabilities

The user can negate friction for themselves and/or others (including objects/beings/surfaces), the force that resists motion, which allows them to run on, hold onto, or move on any surface, regardless of how slippery or even rough and movement dampening/sticky the friction is. This allows them to run on surfaces like ice without falling down, and move at high speed, even when running on surfaces of high friction that would otherwise slow them down.

Applications

Associations

Limitations

  • Cannot ignore other forces such as gravity and inertia, only the friction.
  • Can still have trouble working with others who don't have this power.
