A damage clip is a type of skew clip discovered by glitch hunter Syrkl[1] that involves attaining skew at the moment Mario takes damage, so that the damage animation forces Mario upright at the position of his feet, thus forcing him partially through an adjacent wall or ceiling.

Execution

The execution for damage clips is similar to that of moon clips, although damage clips are more often performed with a two-player vault. This is because two-player vaults allow the player to attain skew lower to the ground, where most damage sources (such as enemies) are located. This method is preferred by many players, as it is widely considered to be easier to perform than other methods for damage clipping at low heights, such as long jump skew clips. Analogously to any other type of skew clip, the player must cap throw while Mario is rotated at nearly 90 degrees and then immediately take damage.

Uses
