Tricks

Neutral Double Jump

The most basic trick and one of the most used ones too.

If you hold a direction as you do a double jump, your speed is set to a certain value which is lower than your running speed.

In the neutral double jump you let go of the left stick before you do the double jump. When done like this, you only lose minimal speed.

The longer you have the left stick neutral, the more speed you lose. Optimally you would hold a direction right until the double jump and then start holding the direction again right after the double.

Inputs:

Forward (Hold) --> Jump --> Forward (Release) --> Double Jump --> Forward

Boost Jump

Another way to preserve your speed.

If you are running with the hoop active and try to jump, you lose the hoop speed.

You can cirumvent this by simply cancelling the hoop by pressing the face button it's on right before you jump.

The timing is very lenient but note that the more it lags the longer you want to wait before pressing jump.

Inputs:

(Assuming you have hoop on X and you are currently running with the hoop active)

X --> Jump

Fall Damage Cancel

You can negate all fall damage you would receive by simply using a gadget.

Gadgets you can use are the net and the club

Inputs:

Hold right stick to any direction before hitting the floor.
