Turns out Galaxy Pools is super easy to reach with a Quantum Skimmer

With this route, you can sword fly direct to Galaxy Pools, no Navigator or Sparrow Flying required. You just need a simple application of Up Box with a Quantum Skimmer. What's Up Box? Not much, you?

A Skimmer can jump upwards so long as the skimmer remains on the ground, and a Quantum Skimmer with a driver doesn't move. That means you can jump endlessly. And since you're going straight up, there's little chance for line of sight issues for the sync.

Getting the Skimmer into position is also super easy. Since you're in map, the hub is very easy to hit, as opposed to the mysteriously shaped hub below the map. It's even somewhat retry-able. If the Skimmer goes without you, it may fall back in map, and if you fail the flight, you can retry so long as you waited for the Skimmer to land.

Thanks to @Rythm-44 for finding the Quantum Skimmer spot. If you want to check out some crazy sparrow routes, check out his channel here: youtube.com/@Rythm-44

Thanks to @JB3_Xbox @GerbSnail for finding Up Box, which should enable some very silly routes.

I'll be at GCX 2026 this year. With the end of live service for the game, I'm sure it'll be a special one. If you'd like to join me there, my affiliate link is https://gcxevent.live/GCX2026Froggy618
