Ice Corner Clip, often abbreviated as ICC, is a corner clip in the Icicle Cavern room in Snow Kingdom that allows the Ice-Dodging Goomba Stack moon to be collected without capturing the Goombas and activating the button. The clip was discovered by Xdxboxjaja and is speculated to save around six to eight seconds in the Any% run, depending on the route used.

Explanation

Because the wall used for the corner clip is not adjacent to any ground, the clip must be performed in midair, and failing the trick will result in a death. Because Ice Corner Clip is so precise, this makes it a very risky trick to attempt in speedruns. Some players have attempted to devise a setup for the trick using first-person camera mode, including MadeForMario. Video
