I found a way to skip the boss key in the spirit temple. With a little OoB and some bomb(chu) hovers I got into the boss room without the boss key. The problem is, that it's probably to hard to do in real time and I can't upload the whole shortcut. I'll upload it after I'm already in the OoB. How to get into the OoB will be uploaded tomorrow.
I thought that we could already get into the boss room without the boss key, doesn't bomb hovering so that Link is about the same height as the door and then a jumpslash make you go inside the boss door work? It only takes about 5 bombs or so to get to that height too.
I did the route myself. Timed different routes myself also, compared which is fastest for non-tas.
so far the only real improvement to your demonstration run is doing ZXM's trials skip, right? anything else?
It'd save 12s iirc (not counting the time needed to get the extra bombs). Now if it's worth it depends on how long will it take you to get bombs from somewhere and getting mroe out of the grass in kakariko goes out of the question.

the beamos on the way in to the trials lobby would work

I've never seen something like this. could you make a video about it?
As far as backflipping over Mido the other way goes, I'm pretty sure that is possible and much easier than backflipping over him forward.
It actually isnt, Ive never been able to pull it off. Why would it be though?
Edit: Ok after alot more testing Im saying it isnt possible the way we get by him. You can however, suplerslide, megaflip, or one bomb hover past him so choose you favorite (id go with superslide)

MrGrunz said it was possible to superslide through Mido. Could someone else test this just to be 100% sure?

I found a way to do it without Iron Boots!!
Its pretty easy to do once you find the angle. You just have to try and get yourself jammed in one of the rock's edges
Nice. Too bad there's no way to do it without a bomb hover. Do you think it's possible to do with a single bomb bomb hover. It would save time and bombs.
You mean backflipping over Mido on the right side, not the left, as shown here:
I thought this was the only side the game allowed you to backflip over him in the first place (at least while people were testing this theory that year).
I've never personally tried the right side, but I can do it on the side shown in the video.

Ya you beat me to the punch, superslide, megaflip, and one bomb hover all work. Maybe one bomb hover on the rock might work but its probably extremely difficult, (goes to try it)
Edit: I doubt the one bomb hover is possible, I did find another way that doesnt use bombs if you are trying to save them, but it might be a little slower
Probably not particularly helpful since its a little slower, but the segment looks brutal so maybe an easier method that saves two bombs would be a better choice
Also about segment 49, wouldn't it be better to get the two heart pieces and skultula before you give the eyeball frog to the old lady so you have time for the three poes+ skultulas?
2) Can you skip the guy that makes you play Saria's Song to make him move in the Lost Woods from the other side?
2) I cant do it, but maybe I dont have the right angle

I've found an easier method without Megaflip / Superslide and you just need to use the hookshot and hold Z to make it 3rd person view. Then when you aim it up so that "Speak" changes to "Jump" this is an eaiser method to backflip over Mido.
@mickey we want to skip mido from the other side, not right or left
superslide and megaflip works for mido skip but not normal backflip
Ah, I misread it then. Either way, my question is now (and I guess I might've missed this earlier on), but why would you want to skip him going back (in terms of the route itself)?
I saw that somebody thought can you hover in void. If I remember corretly you can hover over void on GCN and on VC but not on N64 version. Correct me if I'm wrong. So that Spirit Temple boss key skip should work on cube versio.
Another thing what I need to ask is this. I've problems with that forest escape glitch. I can done it with lots of nuts and that old megaflip way easily. But what I cannot get work is that two nut hover forest escape. It's even possible on console and have anybody done it on console even with three nuts?
If I'm right it's allowed. Because you don't skip big portions of the game. You just skip boss key and some dungeon rooms, not more. So I think is all right. correct me if I'm wrong with this.
If 3 nuts is record, does somedoby have video of it?
