*Minimize the time spent grabbing onto the ropes. Also, when you can, minimize the time you spend in the air while jumping onto [http://www.mariowiki.com/Klobber Klobbers].

Notes:
*For safety, a despawn of the [http://www.mariowiki.com/Kloak Kloak] is performed at 0:52. It is done simply by spawning him, then getting him off screen again.

*Not much to say about this level in terms of tricks: it is all just fast platforming!
*Rolling through both [http://www.mariowiki.com/Klampon Klampons] at 0:47 can result in losing Diddy, if you start your roll too early.
 
*Sometimes, the rope after the double [http://www.mariowiki.com/Spiny_%28Donkey_Kong_Country_2:_Diddy%27s_Kong_Quest%29 Spiny] roll will spawn slightly later, and coming in too fast won't allow you to grab onto it. To prevent this, jump right after killing the second Spiny, cutting the roll short.

'''Additions'''
 
*Roll under the rope at 0:17 instead of grabbing onto it (Saves about .15s).
 
*At 0:21, a [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Moon_Walk moonwalk] is performed to extend the length of the roll. While it is still subject to debate, the general consensus is that it does not save time over the safe route, as the time saved from the roll is equal to the time lost executing the moonwalk.
 
*Roll under the rope at 0:31 instead of grabbing onto it (Saves about .15s).
 
*Do not despawn the Kloak at the end. Instead, roll under the rope and grab it from the right.
 
*(Not shown in video) A [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Team_Up_Goal team-up goal] can be done to save time.

'''Additions'''
 
*Roll under the rope at 0:36 instead of grabbing onto it. This rope skip is tighter than the others. (Saves about .25s frames).
 
*The roll at 0:43 does not save any time, but is worth a lot of swag points. Therefore, it should be attempted at all times in race situations.
 
*Grab the rope at 0:47 from the left instead of the right.

'''Notes'''
 
*At 0:22, a [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Moon_Walk moonwalk] is performed to extend the length of the roll. This allows you to jump out of the roll into the barrels under, to grab the DK.
 
*At 1:05, a [http://cronikeys.com/dkc2/index.php?title=Tricks#Team_Throw_Super_Jumps_aka_DaBigBoi team throw super jump] is performed to quickly reach the bonus barrel.
