Notes

• There are a total of 6 quickshots in the level. A quickshot is when you shoot before the barrel changes direction.
• If you do not want to do the Vine Clip, watch Riz's video below for a safe alternative.

TWIG'S TUTORIAL

VINE CLIP TUTORIAL

• This is where you want to land from launching from the up barrel.

• Notice that this dot triggers the Klampon to load.

• So the idea is, from landing on the platform, start a roll, and once Diddy is right on the dot, cancel your roll into a team-up.

• The goal is to do a Team Throw Super Jump into a specific location in the bramble where you can team throw.
• In order to maximize your vertical distance, you want Dixie to hit the Klampon immediately as it's loaded on the screen.
• The more of the Klampon that's on the screen, the harder it is to get maximum height from the super jump.

• Throw Dixie and hold Y+B and Left.

• As you're traveling upwards, you want to aim for the thorn that the red arrow points to.

• Make sure that you get as much height from your super jump before throwing.

• Throw and hope that you clip. If the throw misses, there are a couple of things that might have gone wrong
  • You weren't high enough vertically. This is the most common problem.
  • You were too far right, resulting in a loss of a Kong. Sometimes you can be too far right and not lose a Kong.
  • You were too far left, resulting in Dixie falling down from the throw. This error might also be confused with not enough height.

• Vine clip!
• If you can't clip, don't get discouraged. It is very precise with a window of a couple of pixels.

MORE STRATS FROM RIZ

• The first two videos are backups. Note that for the first one, you must do a team throw in order to store a super jump. That way, you can damage boost very high and reach the brambles above.
• The 3rd and 4th videos show a slower, but easier method to clip through the vines.
• The final 3 three videos show various ways of doing the standard vine clip. The methods without a roll are slightly faster (last video is the fastest of the 3).
