Happy New Year everyone! 2023 has been an incredible year for Mario Kart Wii TASing, and to celebrate the coming of the new year, I decided to publicize four new flap BKTs! This video showcases the first two of these flaps, both on DS Yoshi Falls, and oh boy these are a treat. A lot has changed on Yoshi Falls since Mikul discovered the ultra shortcut back in April, and with the knowledge we now have, we can now push this track to its absolute limit.
Lets first discuss the Unrestricted Flap, this videos premiere run! This tracks ultra has two parts: the delayed lap count, and the ultra itself. The major development showcased in this run is a method that allows for the second part, the actual ultra, to be performed without utilizing a respawn. Doing this, however, is far easier said than done. The original method for the ultra uses only one shroom to do the ultra, and as a result, comes nowhere close to landing and in fact barely gets far enough for even the respawn method. A few months ago however, I discovered that using three mushrooms, one before the launch for increased external velocity and two more during the egg bounce to maintain speed and height, its just barely possible to land back on the track after performing the ultra. Already, this maneuver is incredibly precise and requires meticulous manipulation of our flight path to hit the egg in the right spot to get the right clip. However, the biggest challenge of this is actually HAVING three shrooms to use for the ultra.
Unlike most other ultras, the Yoshi Fall ultra shortcut REQUIRES a delayed lap count for timesave to be possible, and unfortunately for us, that means performing an absurd supergrind ejection into a wallclip off the egg in the middle of the falls. When Mikul first performed the ultra, he used not one, but TWO shrooms to pull this off, hence why he only used one shroom to perform the ultra itself. For my respawnless route to work though, I would need to pull off the delayed lap count without shrooming at all. Fortunately, by getting a better starting angle for the first supergrind and optimizing my external velocity building from it, it becomes just barely possible wheelie eject out of the supergrind and clip the egg in the right spot without falling into the out of bounds plane. By combining this discovery with the aforementioned three shroom respawnless second half, I was able to string the full route together!
The flap itself is pretty straight forward after landing from the ultra. With careful positioning, we land on the edge of the track and get a barrel roll that allows us to quickly rotate towards the finish line despite our shroom boost still being active. We then hop up onto the ledge and, with help from my good pal Kierio to hyperoptimize the final miniturbo, complete the lap in an incredibly nice time!
Now let me briefly explain the second run showcased here, the No Ultra flap. This run is moreso here for documentation purposes since, technically, its not the fastest run we currently know of. It has, however, been the de facto best-known time for the past couple of months or so since the strat that outdates it, which utilizes the shroomless delayed lap count that the UR flap uses (but with Spear), has not yet been optimized or finalized. For this reason, I felt that it would be a nice addition to this video. The flap itself uses a similar starting process to the unrestricted flap, setting up a supergrind to build up external velocity. However, instead of launching towards the egg immediately, I enter the lap and build up more external velocity before ejecting at the first waterfall. I carry this ludicrous amount of external velocity around the entire first turn using barrel roll wall bonks and then use the rest of it to perform Mikuls egg bounce shortcut with one shroom instead of two. I land with a barrel roll and then use the other two shrooms combined with a barrel roll on the ledge to boost all the way to the finish.
The other two flaps I have prepared for New Years will be released in a few days, so make sure to stay tuned for those!

Woah, I dont know what took me over there. Sorry about that! Lets try this again.
About nine months ago, I published the first ever Daytripper TAS BKT, a 20 second Unrestricted (UR) Flap TAS of Dry Dry Ruins which was, at the time, arguably the most elaborate flap TAS ever created for an official category. While this TAS would soon be accompanied by several more completely ridiculous flaps (such as the current DS Peach Gardens and Koopa Cape UR Flaps, both of which Id highly recommend checking out, theyre incredible), the 20.058 DDR UR Flap was, and still is, a brilliant example of our communitys ingenuity. Funnily enough though, by completely reinventing this tracks ultra altogether, I somehow made the category even more elaborate despite using a much simpler setup.
My original motivation to take another look at this track stemmed from the fact that, in the creation of the 20.058, I was unable to reach checkpoint 33 before being counted out-of-bounds using the Daytripper method. CP33 links to a respawn point which is only one checkpoint away from KCP4, so its preferable to hit it before respawning when possible. Sadly though, my efforts to find a method of reaching CP33 left me empty handed as there was no way I could find to get onto the OOB seam lining the outer perimeter of the track while in front of the finish line. However, I knew from previous testing that there was, in theory, a way to get on the OOB seam on the _inner_ perimeter by getting fake horizontal wall glitch off the slab after the lake. While analyzing this, I had a shocking realization.
Remember how I said that CP33 respawns you one checkpoint away from the last KCP? Well, CP31, the checkpoint that CP33 usually respawns you to, is linked to a respawn point that places you *_in_* the last KCP. This is massive because it means that, by respawning here, we dont have to turn around after respawning, we dont have to turn around after hitting the last KCP, and we can even get a ton of boost frames from the trick ramp. That said, it makes sense that nobody ever considered this since none of the previously known ultra methods even come remotely close to hitting CP31 before respawning. Conveniently, however, that slab I mentioned earlier is surprisingly close to CP31. To put it simply, every element was exactly where it needed to be for a potential new method to seem realistic, and sure enough, on the 17th of May, the slab clip method became a reality!
The setup for this run is initially very similar to the previous BKT. We start by entering a dayclip state, a tech discovered by xnik which allows the Daytripper to drive with one wheel in the floor, and then drive in that state all the way to the finish line. The key difference here is that in this TAS, we get into the dayclip state shroomless from the beginning, something which _had_ to be done this time since the slab clip method of the ultra requires all three shrooms to be saved for the flap.
Once we reach the finish line, the route heavily diverges from the previous flap. We use a variant of the delayed lap count strat, but this time, we just start the flap outright. Further, instead of hopping, we abuse the change in slope to clip the vehicle through the floor without a hop. This simultaneously gives us more height and more rotation than the hop method, allowing us to bounce off the wall to skip the lake entirely. Upon landing, we time a shroom input to drastically increase the pitch of the kart and ramp off of the sloped ground to wallclip onto the slab. We then quickly slide towards the wall, abuse FHWG to bypass it, precisely land on the seam, and use our final shroom to reach CP31 before being counted out of bounds. The rest of the run proceeds largely as youd expect, RFHA lowtrick, kart supergrind, boom.

17.4xx? Cest pas possible.
MAIS SI CEST POSSIBLE AVEC LA CARTE KIWI!
(Translation: 17.4xx? Its not possible.
BUT YES, ITS POSSIBLE WITH THE KIWI CARD!)
The new kiwi card is here! After completing my previous TAS on this track, Estaloy and I decided to work together to lower the time as much as we could. I was able to improve lap 1 myself by getting a faster wallride to the finish line, and this lap 1 led to a much better lap 2 transition. Estaloy and I both worked on improving laps 2 and 3. Estaloy was an big help with the creation of this TAS. His improvements to lap 2 are the reason why this run even subs 17.6, and his 2.655 Flap video was what I used as a reference for the lap 1 transition to lap 2. He also helped on several occasions with optimizing lap 3. Overall, huge thank you to Estaloy for helping with the creation of this run. :D
Lap 3 is one of the biggest question marks of the entire run for us. For some reason, our reject from the wall occurs far later than it does in Estaloys Flap. The sub 17 would definitely be possible if we were able to get a fast reject with the same lap 1 and 2 splits, but from what we found, we simply couldnt get it. Lap 1 may also be improvable, but because of how precise the mushroom hop is, were pretty limited with time we can save on lap 1. Unless a fast reject on lap 3 is possible, the lowest this can go is somewhere around a low 17.3xx to a high 17.2xx.

Disclaimer: This run takes advantage of the analog inputs of the Wii Wheel. In order for this run to be performed in real-time in a playback, pause buffering would potentially need to be used.
We have finally discovered Mario Kart Wiis elusive 22nd ultra shortcut, and no, it isnt a prank this time. Over 2 years of speculation and several hours of seam riding, ground bouncing, mushroom ramping, and vehicle testing has at last culminated in one of MKWs most sought-after strats to date: the Luigi Circuit ultra shortcut.
Heres a pastebin of the events and progressions that led up to this point: https://pastebin.com/LjydDpAD
Also, Id like to acknowledge dm248 for coming up with an idea not unlike what I performed in the video. While the strat performed in this video was both independently and, to a certain degree, accidentally discovered on my own (I only found dms post about 30 minutes before this videos release), dm still deserves the love for their help in pushing this game to its limits. Huge props, man.
With that out of the way, let me quickly explain the quality of the run itself. If were thinking about this as an LC Glitch Flap rather than just a demonstration, the run is improvable in a few regards. First, Im like 500% sure the 2nd shroom timing and turnaround could be improved to optimize this run further. The glitch itself is actually fairly solid since I had to delay my 2nd shroom a little so that I would get enough distance after the OOB Bounce, but I do think that its possible to land a few frames earlier and still bounce into CP21. Everything after the glitch is prelim, but I did still put a little time into optimizing the wall bounce, and the ending as a whole is a good starting point for future runs. So no, this run isnt optimized, but its still pretty good for the first LC Glitch Flap TAS ever, and its very clearly faster than the theoretical best SG flap, so were good on this actually saving time. As for the RTA viability of it, Id say its about on par with the difficulty of the rMR ultra (AKA not happening RTA lmao). The wallclip OOB and seamride is easier for LC, but Id say its checkpoint manipulation glitch is significantly harder than that of rMRs easiest variant.
I dont think Ive ever been as emotionally overwhelmed to accomplish something in a game than I was during the minute between landing in CP21 and completing the lap. Its one thing to be a contributor towards an ultra shortcut, but being the sole discoverer of an ultra shortcut this convoluted is absolutely a dream. I never expected when I started TASing that I would ever reach this point, and seeing how far Ive come in striving for perfection, it really makes everything Ive done feel worth it. Without a doubt, this is my proudest individual achievement, and I thank you all for joining me on this journey of a lifetime. I couldnt have done it without you all. Heres to many more future discoveries!
