Alrighty, here is yet another trick in Back in Time with fadeouts. It does the same thing as bed trick and death trick, but it is a lot easier to perform, you can have up to a 20 frame window.
This seems to work with every transition that is not a load but that calls an entrance. These are pretty scarce in the game. You can recognize them in BiT if you are brought back to the splash screen when going through them.
In this video, I show the fadeout trick with the Impa cutscene in Sealed Temple layer 1. I also confirmed it works with the fadeout when getting hit by a watcher in the Faron Silent Realm. We will look for more of these.
An example of fadeout where this does not work is the fadeout after saving the Goron at Behind the Temple: that fadeout doesn't load an entrance, and BiT does not go back to the Splash Screen. This makes finding the transitions that work a bit difficult, because some transitions that work and some that don't look really identical.

This is very precise so I had to splice it. Theres one splice on the swing back (this is when I savestated), and one splice once I got on the branch.
The vine swing to get on top of this branch is stupidely hard. You cant swing straight towards the branch because theres the pillar on the way. So I have to change my swing direction on my way back. Watching this and trying this you definitely learn things about how vines work in Skyward Sword.
This is not useful, and definitely the hardest way to get OoB in Faron Woods found so far.")

Cool strat but not really faster (not slower done perfectly either). Found by JarheadHME in Randomizer, uploading for ZSR. I would not go for this, you reach the treasure chart 2s faster but you lose time because of the next door flower you didnt break early.")
