Comments
The game has a in-built autofire detector and prevent you from using brute button mashing. This leads to a more subtile mashing

Long jump.
Jump as late as possible, with optimum angle of 47 degrees. Continue to mash in the air. Foul is the fastest for the two last attempts.

Mashing buttons until turn. The best turn is frame perfect and avoid decreasing the speed.

Other comments
There is room for improvements as this run does not exploit glitches. It appears some RAM adresses change while pushing buttons in the pre-events, so there is probably something to do with it.
