Notes

  • The 2nd half of the video shows an unrelated Low% strategy.
  • Rambi Double Jump
  • Use the slope to clash the beetle against itself, in order to set up the ID with the balloon. This is done by repressing Y while sliding down the slope.
  • You will fall off if you are holding right while throwing the invisible barrel when on the balloon.
  • At the very end, if you jump too high, you will get a Dixie fanfare attempting the last hover.

Optimal - Move Your Signpost™️

Move Your Signpost™️

  • wiggle the d-pad and dismount Rambi before going past the signpost. If you're insecure about the timing you can always just glide momentarily to get the proper position, or just straight up land on the ground and jump onto the beetle.
  • Grab the beetle
  • Beetle clash against the slope to get the invis. Sometimes the beetle survives and runs away, that doesn't matter. As long as you have the invis.
  • Jump up to the platform and position yourself right in the little dent in the ground. Your positioning here is really the only precise part of the trick.
  • Stand still, press DOWN and release Y, bingo.


  • The part right after can be finnicky, you want to charge into that wall and delay your jump momentarily. If it's not just right you'll either miss the balloon or lose all speed.

If you lose all speed just run up and jump onto the balloon. If you maintain speed but miss the balloon you can make it out alive (video to be made).

  • Be cautious of the double jump after the signpost part, because you might not land on top of the platform. Below is a backup that might work.
  • At the end; Wiggle the d-pad and dismount, land and then team-up goal. The timing can be precise so if you're insecure you can dismount pretty early, glide and then jump onto the goal. In that case it's important you touch the ground first so you don't get the fanfare (loses a few seconds).

Backup Strat

You will have a pretty high success-rate with this strat, not really precise in the slightest.
