Notes:
*Getting the jump directly into the barrel is quite difficult and hard to be consistent at. Hence, this level has commonly been called "Luckjaw."
+
*You can mash the roll button when you get shot onto trees to make sure you don't fall off without rolling again.  
*To perform the jump, press and hold right and Y once Diddy or Dixie lands onto the top barrel
+
*You have to do an extended roll to get through the entire line of four Kritters right after the halfway barrel. To time it easily, simply let go of Y after you roll into the second one and press and hold again after you roll through the third.  
*The idea behind the trick is to not let the Kong touch the borders when spinning down, because once you do, you cannot change your horizontal direction.
+
*Hold down B for a full jump after you land next to the barrel (after the extended roll) to make sure you get enough height to reach the next tree.
*The motion then becomes Y+right.. Y+left... Y+right->B
 
*The jump itself is hard, but it is still recommended to always go for it.  It will save 2~3 seconds if successful and failing will lose you ~1 second on the safe method.
 
*Not [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Goal_Swapping Goal Swapping] (i.e., having Dixie out for 1-5) sets you up for a [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Wrong_Warp Wrong Warp] in the next level.
