'''Inverted Pyramid Clip''', often abbreviated as '''IP Clip''', is ~~one of the most notable [[Roll cancel~~ clip~~|roll cancel clips]] in Super Mario Odyssey. It~~ allows Mario to enter the [[Inverted Pyramid]] early by clipping through the door, which does not open ~~normally~~ until ''Moon Shards in the Sand'' is collected.

'''Inverted Pyramid Clip''', often abbreviated as '''IP Clip''', is a clip that allows Mario to enter the [[Inverted Pyramid]] early by clipping through the door, which does not normally open until ''Moon Shards in the Sand'' is collected.

~~Like many~~ roll cancel clips, ~~this trick is significantly easier~~ on ~~older~~ versions of the ~~game (~~1.1.0 and earlier). ~~However, due~~ to 1.3.0 being fastest for all main categories, including those that utilize Inverted Pyramid Clip, many runners are forced to learn the harder version.

The clip is possible as both a [[roll cancel clip]] and a [[cap throw clip]]. Clip attempts on the right side of the door seem to behave as a roll cancel clip, while those on the left side seem to behave as a cap throw clip (but can still be done using an instant [[roll cancel]]).

Since cap throw clips are not possible on versions [[Version 1.2.0|1.2.0]] and onward, the clip must be performed as a roll cancel clip on the right side of the door on these newer versions. Additionally, due to the increased difficulty of roll cancel clips on these newer versions, the clip is more precise than on versions [[Version 1.1.0|1.1.0]] and earlier. Due to [[version 1.3.0]] being fastest for all main categories, including those that utilize Inverted Pyramid Clip, many runners are forced to learn the harder version.
