Normal Exit
For all the wings strats, it is important to pick up the shell with right momentum before each attempt at the dupe. It is also important rub up against the block, but not hold right when throwing the shell.

Wings
Spit out the red shell as the left side of the midway goes offscreen in order to line up correctly for the green shell.

This strat causes less lag, but is more difficult.

Key Wings
These wings are between 1 and 2 seconds faster than the normal version.
The most difficult part of this version is picking the shell up with leftward momentum. Being too far left will have the shell not bounce on the ground and too far right will drop yoshi in the pit, and lastly, depending on yoshi's bouncing, it can be tight to not land back on yoshi after dismounting him. The wings are invisible because the sprite slots are full in this area, while the sparkles still show up since they aren't sprites.
One last thing to note is there can be a variable amount of lag depending on the score, so score manipulation is recommended, although not required.

Backup Strats
Skipping the fire flower powerup transition saves a little time. Spitting the shell into the hammer bro at the end stops him from throwing more hammers and sets the shell up in a good spot to be used to boost up over the wall.

Secret Exit
96 Exit
The slower yoshi mount from the Normal Exit, No Wings video above can be used as well. The dismount jump at the end saves about a quarter second of lag over a normal jump.
