A '''double jump''' is a type of jump that is performed by jumping twice in a row. Unlike a [[triple jump]], executing a double jump does not require Mario to be moving. | A '''double jump''' is a type of jump that is performed by jumping twice in a row.

A double jump has a height of between 136.5 and 312 units, depending on how long the jump button is held<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HynGdti4JSw</ref>. This makes it one of the shortest jump types in the game, and only marginally higher than a standard [[jump]]. Double jumps are primarily only used in speedruns to carry momentum forward, rather than gain height, since there are many other types of jumps that provide significantly more height. | |||
If the player jumps a third time after landing a double jump, and Mario is still moving forward in the same direction that the double jump was initiated in, he will perform a [[triple jump]]. | |||
