Beyond the basics, mastering advanced movement is crucial for speedrunning and reaching difficult areas. Techniques like the Side Somersault (run, then quickly change direction and jump), the Wall Kick (jump against a wall, then jump again), and the Dive (Z + B in mid-air) can be chained together for incredible momentum and height. Practice these in the castle courtyard or open levels like Bob-omb Battlefield to perfect your execution. These moves open up many shortcuts.
