Basic Lashings involve manipulating Gravitation to make an object or person fall in a different direction. After his encounter with the Assassin in White, Kaladin manages to duplicate the ability to perform Basic Lashings.{{book ref|sa2|41}} He has since learned how to perform multiple Lashings on a single object, as well as partial Lashings. He is able to fly by Lashing himself into the air,{{book ref|sa2|86}} and has gotten quite good at instinctively dismissing and renewing Lashings in different directions to achieve complex maneuvers such as looping and banking.{{book ref|sa4|6}} He can also use this ability to transport people over long distances by Lashing both themselves and himself multiple times in a direction. He typically does this while over the [[highstorm]] so as to avoid running out of Light.{{book ref|sa3|60}}
 
The Reverse Lashing is the most [[Intention|Intent]]-centered Lashing of the three, and as such is generally more difficult to use. It involves infusing an object and commanding it to attract a specific other object.{{book ref|sa4|49}} Kaladin unconsciously performesperforms this Lashing during the bridge runs for the entirety of his time as a bridgeman, infusing the bridge he carries to attract the Parshendi arrows being shot at him while approaching the target plateaus.{{book ref|sa1|6}} Later at the Battle of the Tower, he infuses the shield he is carrying to draw an entire volley of arrows shot at Bridge Four.{{book ref|sa1|67}} He also uses this Lashing to rip [[The Pursuer]]'s head from his body.{{book ref|sa4|106}}
 
In addition to the Lashings, Kaladin is able to use his Surges to create a pocket of calm within a highstorm. This manifests as a barrier of [[windspren]].{{book ref|sa3|31}}
