I've seen videos where guardians quickly swing the sword while on the air and this is both helpful and important to quickly get around ,but when i try it, it seems the swings are much slower so i can't cover nearly as much ground nor move nearly as fast, so there must be something i'm not doing right. Is there something specific you need to do?

certain armor can give you melee attack speed which can add to this effect. other than that, just spam the melee button
