Since I haven't been spamming this thread enough, here's an example of where the shell mid-air jump can shave off 10s.

Instead of playing it and seeing what he's doing (because I can't - look at previous post), I decided to just go and look at the dsm, and I'm 99% sure I found where it happens (look here to see what's happening): |0|......B.Y....000 000 0| |0|......B.Y....000 000 0| |0|......B.Y....000 000 0| |0|......B.Y....000 000 0| |0|........Y....000 000 0| |0|........Y....000 000 0| |0|........Y....000 000 0| |0|........Y....000 000 0| |0|........Y....000 000 0| |0|R............000 000 0| |0|R.......Y....000 000 0| |0|R.......Y....000 000 0| |0|R.......Y....000 000 0| |0|R.......Y....000 000 0| |0|R.......Y....000 000 0| The line without the Y is where he goes out of the shell, and then he somehow does a double jump by just repressing Y two frames later??? Maybe pressing 'right' while not having Y pressed or letting go of B before letting go of Y has something to do? Not completely sure how I would test that (but at least we're making progress!).

Thanks, but for some reason Mario dies by the first koopa... In the youtube video he just jumps on it

https://streamable.com/jmijm It is apparently possible to double jump mid-air in a blue shell. I do it randomly sometimes but I can't figure out what I have to do to make it happen on purpose. Once it's figured out it might be incorporated in a run to complete a section faster (who knows), but I really want to figure it out, so I thought I'd share it with other humans to see if they can figure it out. The video above is a bad example of what it looks like, it's possible to do it and go much higher on the double jump. Mario in this video only goes up a little on the double jump so it doesn't look as impressive, but it's all I could find to show as an example...
