(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL7zfmJ_1bc)
The goal of this TAS was to complete a single lap as fast as possible.
When TASing the beginning I accidentally found that big momentum bounce upon landing from the glitch, which saves a fair chunk of time. Luke helped me out with optimising the line and miniturbo after the 2nd shroom, which got the time down to a 15.179. In addition to this, after tweaking the last shroom and triple hops many times, I was able to land from the last shroom frame-perfectly before the boost ran out, eliminating the need to charge a miniturbo around the 2nd last corner - thus preserving my speed at 98km/h. After more optimisation we were able to achieve a 15.153. I then asked Rocky for assistance on the last turn, and with his expertise the final time was pushed down to a 15.137.
This can probably be improved by half a frame or so due to one of the cataquacks not being in a perfectly ideal location during the 2nd shroom.
It may also be feasible to start a barrel roll on the track and perform the glitch shroomless (this is unlikely though).
Shoutouts to Malleo who tried working on this for a bit on stream, but was unable to find any improvements.

The speedometer labelled as km/h on the bottom right is normal vehicle speed (most commonly used speedometer), and the speedometer labelled as SPEED on the bottom left is a much more accurate speed reading (The XZ speed) created by using the equation:

Merry Christmas to all of the MKWii TAS community - and surprise!
Yes, the shroomless glitch on DS Desert Hills has finally been accomplished, sort of. While I am aware that the very beginning is suboptimal, this being the only EVER successful shroomless glitch, I figured itd be awesome to showcase a lap 1 with the new strat as a Christmas present to you all!
Of course, none of this would have been possible without David performing the shroomless glitch in one of his RTA WR attempts on this track earlier in the month (you can find the original video of the glitch being performed here: https://gyazo.com/209dc9c4132a9f3a3a355a9e8875c5f8). By downloading the ghost from Chadsoft and importing it into the game using WiiScrubber, I (Ejay) was able to use Davids ghost as a starting point.
I started off the TAS by discovering that the rDH banisters have the exact same collision detection as the rBC3 banisters, meaning a delay clip / floor clip is possible. You get a clip off the edge of the surface, then touch the banister and get increased amounts of airtime (all of this is done without using a mushroom - which is what makes the shroomless glitch such a timesave). The slight wheelie turn on the banister is to avoid a weirdly placed out-of-bounds patch. Kierio helped optimise the turns after the glitch landing, and TASPlasma assisted by kindly helping us with the single trick alignment. I then found a new way to do the double trick - which was faster than the single trick that we were originally going to use. I did the rest of the lap and Kierio also helped with getting a stick on the last turn. The turn before the wheelie cut + the wheelie cut itself can be improved by around 0.010, so a 28.5xx is possible with these strats.
Although Spear is the best vehicle choice for this category now, we just wanted a showcase video ready for Christmas, and the only way we could have done that is by using the only existing ghost using shroomless glitch - which uses flame runner and no start slide. With spear and an optimal start, this can probably go down to a 28.3 or lower.
This TAS really couldnt have been showcased like this without the 3 other people that made it a reality:
- David (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfCUd1XAu3MadSqAgHVQsfw) - who is the first and only person to perform the glitch
- Kierio (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2vKYn2AMivCi27nNZ6tB2Q) - who helped me get through this run and helped optimise it. Thanks for helping me write the description too!
- Derek (https://www.youtube.com/user/TasPlasma) - who performed the single trick alignment and basically saved the run

Super happy with this run. Might push for 1:53 sometime in the future and perhaps Australian record. The last 3 turns on lap 3 are such a pain due to the fire snake being in the way. I also got 8th Australian on rock-hop but the run wasnt the best so I wont upload it.

A while ago in the TAS server, JGB asked if there was a way to clip up to the banner shroomless. So, I found one.
Its really difficult to avoid triggering the lap after the first wallclip, because the finish line is almost perfectly in-line with the drivable part of the banner. To see just how tight this is, you can view an alternate encode with visible checkpoint information here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dEauR6rYsE
Using a 2nd shroom after the banner clip allows me to pass through the fence without slowing down, saving tons of time. Additionally, the Shooting Stars OOB-hopping ability lets me land in the OOB without respawning — enabling me to cover more distance as a whole — and so I can do the banner clip on the right side and trigger the lap count as late as possible. This wasnt previously useful because the track caves inwards the further right you are, and inside-drift bikes cant do the OOB hop to cover more distance.
Also, getting wedged in the floor after the tree bounce isnt possible with Shooting Star.
Special thanks to @justin3055 for helping me shave off time at the tree bounce and the superhops!

Please note: I only plan to make intros after beating a WR by Phyz. Since this is just a personal improvement I decided to upload the run by itself.
Wow! I honestly did not expect to improve this quickly. Everything is pretty solid in this run except the drift ending, where I went a tad wide. A 17.4 and maybe even a high 17.3 seems quite doable now.

I cant believe I got this run!
After being on holiday for a week I came back and tried to beat my 17.582 using the TAS Entry strategy. After Ross got WR, I actually improved my time without TAS Entry to a 17.502 (-0.080 cut) and after ONLY 5 days of grinding I finally got world record with a time of 17.100.
Laps 2 and 3 were pretty good considering how nervous I was. Lap 1 is my personal best split, which is cool. I can see myself hitting a 6.5 lap 1, therefore a sub 17 WR will inevitably happen in the near future.
Some cool statistics:
- I made it over the rock using TAS Entry 606 times (yes, I kept count).
- Runs where I got too much air and flew over the rock directly into the lava despite a good alignment - 522
- Runs where I actually stuck to the rock without crashing or getting too much air - 84
- Runs where I didnt immediately crash into the wall on the left or fall into the lava upon attempting the first turn - About 10
- Of those 10, I achieved 3 sub 18s (17.781, 17.630 and 17.100)
Also the Maple Treeway glitch tutorial is nearly finished, so keep your eyes peeled!

TAS BKT Cut - [N/A]
Flap BKT without new Ultra Shortcut by Monster and Akari - 35.936
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym3F0VX6zd8)
The goal of this TAS was to complete a single lap as fast as possible (fast lap is abbreviated in the title to Flap).
The old glitch flap category is now No Ultra Shortcut because the new glitch category is now an actual ultra shortcut, so this run cannot be compared with it.
There is a FAQ in the pinned comment in the comment section which may answer some questions you have about the video.
You are watching a run that has been in WIP for over 280 days, and has taken over 500 combined hours of work between 16 different people. This is Mario Kart Wiis 18th ultra shortcut, the third in 2020.
It was amazing to finally complete this project, and Im proud that everyone persisted and worked on it together to achieve the end goal. This ultra shortcut is very unique, the least efficient one in the game, only saving around 0.1 - yet it still classifies as one due to it skipping a key checkpoint. The first KCP skip amazes me even as Im uploading the video because we were able to go so far to the left, considering that we were clipping blocks that were parallel to the track. The ending shortcut is super smooth, and ended up looking really cool, and saving more time than I think any of us expected.
There are only a few places where this TAS can potentially be improved:
- The first shortcut (more testing needs to be done). Its finicky to get, but ~0.020 could possibly be cut from it.
- The shroomless offroad cut (can go down another ~0.005 with a lower bounce over the hole, which is QM).
- The final turn, where the thwomp is partially in the way. By beginning the flap at the right time, it will not longer block us, saving around a frame.
To find out what weve actually been doing for the past nine months, read the following document on the entire history of this ultra shortcut:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/11HeJUdT7YqdnHbxovsPAQqp6zbA8C8SNWFUsbWb7ZPo/edit?usp=sharing
It is HIGHLY recommended that you read the above document, we spent a few weeks writing it as a highly detailed extension to the description. It includes an explanation on the history of the ultra shortcut itself, a timeline of how the run was made, the authors comments, key quotes from the early stages of the run, key insights to the tricks done in the final run, and much more.
The speedometer labelled as km/h on the bottom left is normal vehicle speed (most commonly used speedometer), and the speedometer labelled as SPEED in the bottom right is a much more accurate speed reading (The XYZ speed) created by using the equation:
(((Xpos current frame - Xpos previous frame)^2) + ((Ypos current frame - Ypos previous frame)^2) + ((Zpos current frame - Zpos previous frame)^2))^0.5
