This setup was designed to be an easy and consistent way for Ganondoor in low% MST but can also be used in restriction races or with the swordless route if you run out of nuts.
setup:
0) recatch bottle contents
1) get into the corner, target the wall facing away from the warp
2) backflip 7 times, backflip - OI with Deku Stick
3) start holding right and cancel OI when the camera snaps close to Link
4) input buffer left, the C-button linked to Deku Sticks and Z
5) slash again or do a sidehop and slash before crossing the hump (depending on the frame)
6) do the adjustments shown in the video and open the door in the corner
frame 30: 0:23
frame 31: 0:47
frame 32: 1:14
frame 33: 1:37
Step 4) can be done unbuffered but it's easier to one pause it and allows for a more consistent determination of your frame before crossing the hump.
You need to perform additional slashes and sidehops at full walking speed and before crossing the hump. Movement after crossing the hump doesn't change the warp timer.
When you're targeting a wall behind Link, make sure to not just tap down but really walk against it before targeting (don't worry, you won't advance additional frames).
If you perform the second stick slash early (but still at full speed) for the frame 31 adjustment, you might end up with the warp timer being at 91 instead of 92 when crossing the hump. Just do frame 33 adjustment in that case (turn around near the door with your back against the wall) but you can avoid it in general if it turns out to be inconsistent for you.
This video was recorded on PAL but can be performed on any version. Performing Ocarina Items with a Deku Stick on a blue warp requires quick inputs so try to practise it on slopes if you keep walking into the warp.

![hover to Beth area [OoT bingo]
This strat can be used in blackout bingos if 4 Unused Keys in Forest Temple appears together with other goals like Fairy Bow, Map & Compass in Forest Temple, Defeat Meg, etc.
Setup starting at 1:10
- Its required to beat the Stalfos below in order to fight the Bow room ones thus being able to leave that room again.
- I shot the eye switch in advance but you can also perform SoT block skip and go through the Map room to reach the area (you need to collect the keys, anyway).
Edit: Its probably faster and saves explosives if you just enter the room with the falling ceiling by going through the Amy puzzle room in reverse instead of the first hover.
- It takes one small key to reach the Beth room but you can fight Joelle to get an extra one so youll still have 4 unused keys.
- If you hover too far back, youll end up over a void but you can unlock the camera with a chu and turn around to prevent a crash.
29 chus and 10 bombs should be a safe amount for the whole temple.
- The first hover can be done with a normal sideflip hover (drop chu within the first three frames). If you drop it on the third frame (shown in the video), you can equip Hover Boots and still get enough distance to make it with 6 hovers.
Your height of the second hover is determined by the initial hover. I watch out for Links feet being aligned with the ceiling for when to switch to bomb hovers (otherwise the chu will crawl along the wall). Thats usually the case after 17 - 18 chu hovers.
My setup isnt very elaborate but maybe one of the pros could use some inspiration. hover to Beth area [OoT bingo]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DKI36S7JZfg/mqdefault.jpg)

![Defeat Amy (Green Poe) [OoT bingo] - no Hover Boots
0) get ISG, target and climb the railing
1) turn right
2) do 4 sideflip hovers, sideflip onto the upper railing
3) shoot the painting on the wall and push the blocks
You can ESS turn right for 1 frame additionally to allow a late sideflip timing once and still make it with 4 hovers.
The general strat for pushing the blocks is okay (it has the minimal amount of pushes/pulls and the movement in between is decent) but my execution was just horrible.
P.S.: Dont get crushed by the blocks. Defeat Amy (Green Poe) [OoT bingo] - no Hover Boots](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DlbIJIRn1cQ/mqdefault.jpg)
