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.

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.
