Because of the structure of its rooms, Lost Woods is probably the most versatile place in the game to SRM in. Unfortunately, it has one glaring restriction: It's not possible to pick up bushes without a strength upgrade, which means you can't SRM here without taking a major detour to obtain it or loading the title file.
...or at least, so we thought. It turns out that when you press A to pick up a bush, Link doesn't immediately check whether it's a bush or not, he only checks this once he actually reaches down and grabs it. This means that if you superslide off a bush, and pass through not just one but two different loading planes, something else is likely to load over the bush BEFORE link ever reaches down to grab it. This means that he won't detect it as being a bush, and will be able to pick it up successfully and SRM with it!
This is useful for No Item Manipulation/Wrong Warp with SRM (GSRM?), which is a category that is still under development. Up until now this category has not been able to achieve any useful SRM effects, due to its limited availability of items. Finding ways to make SRM useful with limited items, and without use of the two most powerful effects, is a pretty interesting challenge.
One thing that I did not manage to find, but that would be extremely useful, is a setup to do this superslide using only bombchus, and not the bomb that I used in this video.
Also, one other thing to keep in mind is that many Lost Woods SRM effects require you to grab the invisible bush at the very end, in order to manipulate the value that gets written into save context. Fortunately Age Change just wants to write zero so it doesn't have to do this, but this means certain other SRM effects still aren't achievable right now.
The heap shown is 1.2 NTSC.
