Secret Exit

Sandbar clip saves 12.87 seconds over the normal strat, however it is a *2 frame trick, and spin jumping early kills mario, while spin jumping late will just not get the clip.

Sandbarcue.png

👀 Visual Cue:
To get sandbar clip, duck, then spinjump when the sandbar is at this height. The two dots in the dirt block on the right make a good visual cue.

To be more specific, there are 2 guaranteed frames to clip through the sandbar. Because of the fickle nature of Mario's y-subpixel, there is a chance that one or both of the 2 frames before these 2 guaranteed frames won't kill Mario, but get the sandbar clip as well.
There's effectively a 1/8 chance only the 1st of the two early frames before the guaranteed frames clips through, a 1/8 chance only the 2nd frame before the guaranteed frames clips through, and a 1/16 chance that both can clip Mario through; in total, this gives a 3/16 (18.75%) chance that hitting the spin jump one or two frames early will still clip Mario through.
This phenomenon also leads to a paradox where one sandbar attempt can be successful, while another attempt that spin jumps later can have Mario die.

Cape Categories

No Sandbar Clip

Grabbing the backup cape loses no time if you already decided to not do sandbar.

No Cape Categories

The jump up to the secret exit is luck based. If you miss it, just wait for the sandbar to rise and use it to jump up.

SubpixelManipCue.png

👀 Visual Cue:
For the room 3 sandbar clip, Mario's subpixel should be manipulated by letting go of right around this spot before Mario passes the wall.

Sandbarcue2.png

👀 Visual Cue:
Hold left when the sandbar is at this height to get the room 3 sandbar clip. Like the first sandbar clip, this one is a two frame trick and the punishment for missing it is death.

Room 1 can be adapted if you don't have yoshi by having a small delay at the beginning to let the sandbar go down.

Clip 1 skip can be achieved by duping the key fast enough. If don't get the key fast, just do clip 1.

The video below shows a backup shell grab in room 1 and avoid doing clip 3 (which can be difficult).
