I guess I mean that while playing as Dixie in DKC 2 you are able to do so much more than you are when she is riding DK's back in TF.

About the only difference I noted was that her spin was modified from an unending descent slower to a brief upward boost, both  of which fitted well with their respective game's level designs.
