Ledge Rolls
If you roll from the very edge of a platform, you will get a roll with significantly low trajectory. The window for getting these rolls is fairly tight, but it can be useful for reaching certain enemies from below, such as the Krem at the end of Barrel Cannon Canyon while rolling off the tree. It's also good to be aware of so you don't kill yourself doing it accidentally!
Unrestricted Rolls
While being shot out of a barrel onto regular terrain, if you initiate a roll upon landing without running prior to the roll, you can continue running after the roll rather than needing to jump before the roll ends. This can be used to chain 2 rolls in a row without needing to jump and can be used in various places in the run, such as the end of Barrel Cannon Canyon and in Tree Top Town.
Fast Shots
When you shoot out of barrels, if you hold forward while holding B (run button, not jump!) you will actually slow down in most cases. To avoid slowing down, you will typically want to avoid holding B until near the end of being shot out of a barrel (or when you land depending on how high you are after your momentum ends from the barrel shot). However, holding A is completely fine and can even extend Fast Shots quite a bit while bouncing off of enemies. This is used extensively in Vulture Culture, but has applications pretty much everywhere there are barrels that shoot you horizontally.
