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>

| Between the rolling corn and a wall in [[Luncheon Kingdom]] || If the corn is moved slightly away from the wall, it'll allow Mario to get stuck between them. Once Mario has around 120 speed, he will move up the perpendicular wall, as it has a very steep slope near the bottom. Mario will escape this spot at around 1200 speed. || [https://twitter.com/relaxmas1/status/1485034793586757632 Clip]

| A vertical wind gust near [[Luigi's Balloon World|Luigi]] in [[Snow Kingdom]] || This spot is unstable, making it difficult (but not impossible) to build up significant speed. Because of its instability, it's possible to be pushed up onto the adjoining slope with a high horizontal speed, thus converting it to vertical speed.<ref>https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1649710239283916804</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1649710896304779266</ref> || [https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1649708691451510784 Clip]
