[[File:Mario Odyssey Moon Cave Skip|thumb|330x330px]]'''Moon Cavern Skip''' (also referred to as Moon Cave Skip, Cave Skip or simply Moon Skip) is a jump that can be used to skip the entirety of the [[Underground Moon Caverns]] in the [[Moon Kingdom]]. This saves time in numerous categories, including [[Any%]], [[World Peace]], [[Dark Side]] and [[Darker Side]]. To perform Moon Cavern Skip, the player must either groundpound, backflip or sideflip off the Sphynx's head and then wall jump in specific places on the surrounding walls to gain enough height to access the platform above. Moon Cavern Skip is one of the biggest timesaves in all the categories that feature it. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7x8QHFOXxE Here] is a Moon Cavern Skip tutorial.

to skip the entirety of the [[Underground Moon Caverns]] in the [[Moon Kingdom]].  
 
== Execution ==
[[File:MoonSkipLocation.png|thumb|232x232px]]
To perform Moon Cavern Skip,  
* Either groundpound, backflip or sideflip off the Sphynx's head  
* Wall jump in the "L" shape made by the normal surface of the wall (See image)
* Hold straight left until mario grabs the wall
* Wall jump again to reach the platform
 
== Uses in runs ==
This is used in all categories that needs to go through Moon Kingdom.
 
In the case of [[100%]], [[All Moons]] and [[Darker Side]], this saves time by allowing the player to finish Moon Kingdom quickly on the first pass and come back a second time to allow the player to grab remaining moons from the first pass combined with the moons that spawns from achieving peace in the kingdom.
