Slappa

Slappa is a large mummified hand similar to Grabba found as an enemy in Banjo-Kazooie in the location Gobi's Valley. It lies in wait under the sand until Banjo and Kazooie pass unsuspectingly by, then springing up and slapping the ground in an attempt to crush them. If Banjo is too far away to reach, then Slappa can actually chase him by plowing through the sand until the bear moves out of its limited territorial range.

Although Slappas can be defeated fairly easily with two hits from the Rat-a-tat Rap, an effective one-hit kill strategy is to wait until Slappa hits the ground, then use Kazooie's Beak Buster ability on it before it can get up.
