Dead Or Alive 2 Ultimate Disc: This can only be done in Ayane's story mode. When you get to the fight with Kasumi and the snow level (it will always be the snow level when you fight Kasumi), knock/get knocked down into the lower level, the ice cave, and continue fighting there. Win the round with a final blow that will send Kasumi a considerable distance from you (about fifteen feet away from Ayane, QCF + Kick works well).
