Jaxi Skip
Jaxi Ruins skip (AKA Jaxi Skip) is a skip performed at the poison lake in the Sand Kingdom. It abuses the Bullet Bill
capture, found in the ruins nearby, to get high enough to get on top of the ruins. Doing this skips an underground section. It also allows the player to talk to the Jaxi, and thus ride him, before obtaining the multi moon on top of the Inverted Pyramid.
Reproduction Steps
Start by capturing a Bullet Bill at the Ruins. Move with the bullet to the Jaxi Ruins, crash him into the wall next to the face in the corner. Wall jump against the wall, and at the peak of the wall jump, cap throw and dive onto the jaxi ruins.
A different way to perform this skip is by going to the back of the ruins and jumping on top of one of the Jaxi statues next to the entrance of the Jaxi Rider sub area. Then do a backflip and cap dive to get on the higher ledge. From here do another backflip and cap dive to get on top of the Jaxi Ruins.
Usage in runs
Since this trick can combine 3 quick moons together with the use of the same capture, many categories use it.
