A roll cancel clip, often abbreviated as an RCC, is a type of out-of-bounds clip that involves performing an instant roll cancel against specific walls. The roll cancel clip is one of the most prominent forms of clipping in Super Mario Odyssey, with dozens of distinct locations to execute the trick.

Because roll cancel clips utilize an instant roll cancel, they require inputs in a very quick succession, as well as often requiring a precise positioning of Mario in order to clip through. Some roll cancel clips may have slightly different timings for the roll cancel inputs than others. Some of the most notable instances of this type of clip include Inverted Pyramid Clip (IP clip), Snow Clip (Upstairs and Downstairs) and numerous clips through doors to buildings in the Metro Kingdom (mainly used for Luigi's Balloon World).

Reproduction Steps

In order to execute this glitch, you need

  • To be positionned just right;
  • Execute a ground pound (jump + Z);
  • Initiate a quick roll out of that ground pound (X or Y);
  • And immediately cancel it (Y+B or X+A).

List of RCCs

The number in parentheses is the last version this RCC was known to be possible. If there's none the clip is still available to this day.
