Fastest

The movement from 390-388 is difficult to do well but saves doing a second left-right. The ending Yoshifly ground pound is quite precise and saves less than half a second compared to the spin jump method.

No Starworld

Take a throw block across the goal for a backup cape.

95 Exit, No Cape

Jumping on the first step of the second set of stairs ensures a bigger window to tongue the Mega Mole, as opposed to jumping on the second step.
