~~~~'''~~Overview~~'~~''~~

Spinpounds (otherwise known as 'buffered spin jump groundpounds' or 'bumps') are a movement technique used in Super Mario Odyssey speedrunning. Spinpounds are groundpounds that have a shorter animation, meaning that they can be executed more swiftly in order to reach maximum rolling speed.

~~Spinpounds (otherwise known as~~ '~~buffered spinjump groundpounds~~', '~~bumps~~' or '~~hipdrops~~') are a movement technique used in Super Mario Odyssey speedrunning. Spinpounds are groundpounds that have a shorter animation, meaning that they can be executed more swiftly. Spinpounds are used at nearly every point in a Super Mario Odyssey speedrun and are a must learn.

== '''Reproduction Steps''' ==

To perform a spinpound

* Spin the left anologue stick so that it completes to full rotations;

~~'''Performance'''~~

* Press the jump button (A/B);

* Groundpound (ZL/ZR)

To perform a spinpound~~, spin~~ the left anologue stick so that it completes to full rotations; ~~press a~~/b; zl/~~zr and finally x/y~~/shake. A spinpound is the same speed if the player shakes their controller when executing it. Spinpounds differ in speed depending on how fast they are executed. A perfect spinpound can be performed in only 4 frames.

* Press the capthrow button (X/Y) or shake.

~~'''Usage'''~~

== '''Usage''' ==

Spinpounds have all the same uses as regular groundpounds - that is rolling, jumping, killing enemies and breaking boxes, amongst other things. This section will focus on places where spinpounds are most optimal and most frequently used.

In most speedruns, spinpounds are most commonly used to get ontop of low standing walls or to scale a wall. This is because spinpounds are faster than ~~groundpounds~~ and give more height than backflips. In nearly every situation when the player is required to scale a wall, a spinpound is used. Notable exceptions include salt triple and left side (though it can be used in left side when accompanied by a cappy roll vault).

In most speedruns, spinpounds are most commonly used to get ontop of low standing walls or to scale a wall. This is because spinpounds are faster than a regular groundpound and give more height than a backflip.

Spinpounds are also used in rolls. A spinpound roll will give maximum roll speed on the first roll, as opposed to rolls gradually gaining in speed over time. A spinpound roll is faster than a normal roll in practically every situation. One of the only instances where it is faster to do a regular roll is at the start of lost kingdom koopa freerunning. Please be aware that spinpound rolls are only faster if they start a roll sequence and should not be used in a ~~chain~~.

Aside from movement, most ledge clip setups feature spinpounds at some points, though the setups are usually very unreliable.

~~~~'''Silent spinpounds'''~~~~

== '''Silent spinpounds''' ==

A silent spinpound is when a spinpound does not generate the usual sound accompanied by a spinpound. Many players will encounter a silent spinpound at some point whilst playing the game and may be confused as to what caused it. According to current knowledge, a silent spinpound occurs when the player releases zl/zr just before the spinpound is completed.
