'''Left Side''' is a | '''Left Side''' is a trickjump that takes place on top of [[Top-Hat Tower]] in the [[Cap Kingdom]]. The jump involves performing a [[triple jump]] or [[vault]] from one of the broken airships to the left of the exit door, allowing the player to reach the top more quickly than by rolling up the ramp. This trick saves around two seconds versus scaling the tower normally. | ||

Partial Left Side is a variant of Left Side in which the tower is scaled to the left, but doesn't rely on a precise trickjump. Instead, the player must pass the broken airship that the Left Side jump is normally initiated from, and use another broken airship farther to the left to climb up to the top of the ramp. If performed optimally, this variant of the trick saves around one second over using the ramp normally, and may be easier than regular Left Side for some players. | |||
