Skyward smash does aoe damage, so only rogues dash does single target DMG. Besides the whole point of Gale has been to do AOE dmg.

I think gale dash forward will be fine since it'll be stunning enemies.
Personally I would like to see the dash paired with the armor boost because it would help negate the negative effects of dashing into a mob.
