1) target the fence, ESS turn right for 6 frames (Link is facing to the right of the corner)
2) walk into the corner, sidehop left, backflip, turn around
3) shielddrop a bomb, roll, backflip - neutral roll, roll
4) megasidehop right, equip Hover Boots in midair
5) release all button inputs and hold right until the dirt path leading to the rainbow bridge becomes completely visible
6) switch to straight up afterwards, jumpslash when the hovering effect wears off to reach the loading zone
This is a neat little time saver for no IM/WW. The megasidehop can be annoying on PAL so I decided to upload a setup to make it more consistent. Different megasidehops/releasing Z frames might lead to weird camera angles but I haven't tested backup strats for those.

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.")

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.")
