In most speedruns, spinpounds are most commonly used to get ontop of low standing walls or to scale a wall.

It is possible to buffer the two stick rotations in most cutscenes or out of dives, jumps or rolling. | |||
A well executed buffered spinpound is slightly faster than initiating a roll regularly. This time save is most noticeable if you want to roll into a direction different from the one Mario is facing because the spinpound completely gets rid of the slow turning animation. | |||
