Difficulty: 5/10

Because there are so many possible Jumprolls in this stage, there are many ways this could go down.

Important notes;

  • Initiate all the Jumprolls with "Y" TAPS, because sometimes you could get a double explosion. In which case, pressing and holding "Y" won't work.
  • A Double explosion is when the hit animation is doubled.
  • When you get a double explosion Jumproll, It's important to not re-press "Y" while in mid-air too early. If you do, You'll cancel the Jumproll with a regular roll, drop down, and die. which sucks.

Optimal (First Bird , Single Explosion)

First Entry;

  • Grab the warp, swap kongs as soon as possible after.
  • The jump over the Mankey is rather awkward. It's kind of a medium jump.
  • Swap Kongs
  • Watch the Mankey's animation for a visual que for when to enter the bonus barrel. After you take damage you might have to bounce on the guy depending on how early or late you enter the barrel.

Second Entry;

  • Double Jumproll saves ~58s , Single Jumproll saves ~38s.
  • Successful Jumproll off the first Bird.
  • When you reach the platform around mid-way, Duck a tiny amount, this ensues that you can roll, and attempt the second Jumproll. The setup is different if you got a double explosion jumproll.

First Bird (Double Explosion)

  • Note the doubled "explosion" animation.
  • Since you can't "press" Y (You'll lose the jumproll state), you need to walk over to the Gnawty, stall for a bit, and Tap "Y" at the right time. If done correctly the second Jumproll will be much faster. Consecutive Jumproll's speed stack with double explosions.
  • Saves just under 1s over single explosion, due to the slower setup for the second jumproll.

Second Bird

  • on the second entry, grab the bonuses in "reverse" order.
  • Note the different setup for the second jumproll.

Third Bird

  • You need to manipulate the camera to load the bird in the proper position.
  • Platform around mid-way; If you get single explosion, do what's shown in the video. If you get double explosion, dupe the double explosion setup for first bird.
  • Double Jumproll saves ~45s , Single Jumproll saves ~32s

Fourth & Fifth Bird

Fourth Bird

  • This one can be tricky, if your position is a bit too high you'll die to that mini necky's nut.
  • Saves ~42s

Fifth Bird

  • You won't need to worry about your height with this one
  • Saves ~37s

Mini Necky

  • Double Jumproll saves ~20s , Single saves ~5s
