'''Dino Skip Skip''', often abbreviated as '''DSS''' (and sometimes referred to by various other names), is a speedrun strategy used in the [[Cascade Kingdom]] that can save up to eight seconds. The trick involves taking a shortcut to the upper level of the kingdom by climbing directly up the side of a rock wall near the start of the kingdom. This is achieved by landing on a very small piece of collision on the side of the wall that allows Mario to stand. | '''Dino Skip Skip''', often abbreviated as '''DSS''' (and sometimes referred to by various other names), is a speedrun strategy used in the [[Cascade Kingdom]] that can save up to eight seconds.

In the case of [[Any%]], Dino Skip Skip is used as an alternate method of climbing the kingdom to reach the [[Madame Broode]] arena. After the wall climb is performed, the player must perform [[Rib Jump]] to reach the highest level of the kingdom, allowing them to travel directly to the boss arena. As the name of the trick implies, this route variation completely eliminates [[Dino Skip]] from the route. | |||
On game version 1.0.0, the skip is performed immediately upon entering the kingdom, and removes both [[First Moon Skip]] and [[Dino Skip]] from the route. In this case, the trick saves roughly five seconds. | |||
On game version 1.3.0 (the fastest version and the one used for most Any% speedruns), the trick is performed just after collecting ''Our First Power Moon'', and saves a total of eight seconds since it also bypasses the cutscene where Cappy explains how to use the [[Odyssey]].[[Category:Tricks]] |
