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).

== Pedro spots ==
A Pedro spot is a location in which Mario can build up speed with a speedflip while staying still. For a location to work as a Pedro spot, it must have a way for Mario to maintain his vertical position, next to a wall. For example, in a spot with a wall parallel to and very close to a slope that's too steep for Mario to stand on, the wall will push Mario into the slope, and the slope will push Mario back into the wall, but maintaining his vertical position rather than falling. The vertical wind gusts in [[Snow Kingdom]] can also work as Pedro spots. The name "Pedro spot" was borrowed from a similar glitch in Super Mario 64.<ref>https://ukikipedia.net/wiki/Pedro_Spot</ref>
