Speedflips currently have little use, but some proposed applications include finding a new [[infinite fall]], and, combined with [[Nut sliding|nut sliding]], a new way to collect the Third Courtyard Outskirts moon in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] without capturing anything.<ref>https://twitter.com/tetraxiIe/status/1485469199740940291</ref> A speedflip has also been used to jump from the painting island in Bowser's Kingdom to the [[Third Courtyard Rear]] island.<ref>https://www.twitch.tv/pistachiopiper/clip/SteamyCleverVultureDogFace-7ff_u3APg90wLZG_</ref>
