Notes

  • Bear coin count: 47
  • There are faster ways to enter the first bonus detailed in more strats.
  • When rolling to the bonus, be careful of the ledge as it can eat jumps. You can jump when you're past the ledge to be safe.
  • The first bonus can be done as Dixie or Kiddy depending on preference. Dixie's hover can be useful, but Kiddy doesn't suffer from the landing lag that Dixie experiences when she jumps to a higher barrel. If the bonus is done as Dixie, swap to Kiddy right after the bonus.
  • Try to replicate the movement in the video from 1:21 leading up to the second bonus as closely as possible. With different movement sometimes the barrel at 1:29 will not spawn.
  • The skip at 1:58 can be hard. To perform this jump on the lower barrel, team up and jump until about half height, then team throw up. If you are not certain about your height, you can do another team throw up for safety.

MORE STRATS

Notes

  • You can roll into the first bonus directly, but this is more precise and you risk having your jump eaten by the ledge.
  • To perform the teamthrow into the bonus make sure to go right when shooting out of the autofire barrel to spawn the waterfall barrels later. Try to land such that you only pick up the first banana and instantly swap and team throw left. If Dixie quickly lands on the right side of the barrel, you can team throw into the bonus. If Dixie takes longer to land and lands on the left side of the barrel, this team throw won't work.
  • To successfully perform the faster 2nd bonus strat you'll have to have a fast climb up the barrels in the bonus.
