Notably, in the direction perpendicular to the sideflip, Mario's speed is not capped, meaning one can, under the right conditions, build up infinite speed in this direction.<ref>https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1484820188755279873</ref> This is known as a speedflip. Mario's acceleration in this direction is proportional to the component of the left joystick pointing in that direction, with a maximum acceleration of roughly 0.07 units/frame<sup>2</sup>.

Speedflips currently have little use, but some proposed applications include finding a new [[Infinite fall|infinite fall]], and, combined with [[Nut sliding|nut sliding]], a new way to collect the Third Courtyard Outskirts moon in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] without capturing anything.<ref>https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1485469199740940291</ref>

Mario's speed in the direction of the sideflip and his speed perpendicular to the sideflip are completely independent. This makes it possible to [[Vectoring|vector]] a speedflip, squeezing out just slightly more speed (though the acceleration is unaffected).<ref>https://clips.twitch.tv/SecretiveCalmWatermelonStoneLightning-X1raEXhDO688CPus</ref>
