How to Do Crazy Tech Jumps & Moves in Super Mario Odyssey

Super Mario Odyssey gives Mario more jumping abilities than ever before thanks to the one and only Cappy, but how do you pull of these crazy, ridiculous jumps and moves? Alex is the man to ask, apparently.

[@Rigamarole]

i love the mobility of this game, they nailed the controls and moveset

[@xeno4693]

Rigamarole wtf

[@Ratzmoonmopes]

@Amin that's 99% of every video game, blind nintendo fanboy.

[@jay8980]

Ratzmoonmopes untrue, thats why you see much more out of bounds glitches where the movement is made for the world and not vise-versa (be that as it may, no game is perfect, neither is nintendo

[@stonespades2965]

Topher man, I thought my fellow 19 year olds were nice

[@Prowerexem]

Like titanfall

[@ssj2matt]

The devs know how big the Speedrunning community is for SM64. I'd imagine they made all these skips intentional for the skilled player to take advantage of.

[@JohnRyder-]

Matt I bet they're really skilled themselves. They've been playing it every day for several years, and they knew skilled players could take advantage of the moves

[@charlesselby6132]

Matt They confirmed that.

[@Choinkus]

Odyssey is the best Mario game in a while honestly.

[@R3ub3n]

Don't think so because otherwise they wouldn't have attempted to patch roll cancel clipping

[@leveldetermined]

Well you know sakurai the creator is very good at games himself

[@Buddhapungen]

three years later, people are getting from the isolated rooftop to the main city mad

[@candicegurwitz5649]

Yeah

[@candicegurwitz5649]

Crc

[@PicoDePaulo]

@Alex check out small ant’s video on it. The video is called teleportation for minimum captures or something like that

[@hunchily]

@Alex use the crc beats in the discord to time button presses

[@christopherdehmer7930]

people also be going from the beginning of the game to the end of darker side in 4 captures

[@TheJuggernautBitch]

It turns into a complete different game when a skilled person plays it vs when a new person plays it. you know if u played it

[@thesaltmerchant4564]

The Juggernaut Bitch it's funny a friend bought it 100% it and I asked him for his thoughts and said eh it's to easy. I'm like did you try the alternate routes without transforms? He's like nah that's artificial difficulty. LOL

[@loganthemidget1605]

I agree

[@KaliTakumi]

I actually learned how to do the double cappy jump during the second kingdom just messing around so I was doing a lot of skips during the whole game

[@dreflox]

I managed to be pretty skilled since the start, didn't take me long to learn the tricks because i played a lot of other 3D mario games before and was playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 on my WiiU before i got my switch so yeah

[@Cruzan9]

I couldn't agree more. It's pretty impressive. I doubt I'll ever get that good.

[@PMK94]

This actually was pretty useful. I mostly figured out the longer jumps myself (aside from proper timing), but I didn't really realize how useful the ground pound jump was for high jumps. Good stuff

[@ibrahimabdullahi1235]

Is it only me who came back 4 years later and is laughing at him not being able to jump from the beginning of metro kingdom to the main part

[@candicegurwitz5649]

Same

[@opiret44]

The channel should've been a give away that it would not be "crazy tech jumps." /lh

[@tz4601]

Chill, this is supposed to be showing the basics for new players.

[@toonstink9448]

Another thing: after a cap dive bounce you can press jump after the bounce up and before the second cap throw to get a bit more of a height boost

[@bobbymcclellan3186]

Toon Stink I think you might actually lose height by doing that but you gain distance. I could be wrong though.

[@mygrumpyhimalayan5059]

You gain more height and about the same amount of distance as a long jump from self experience

[@mastric3502]

Not really, the input delay after doing the spin will decrease your height.

[@lukeskywalkerandfriends]

this is why I came to the video I wanted to learn how to do that thank you and no i didny just get the game

[@Astral134]

This video turned out to be a little bit more amazing than I was expecting. This makes SMO look like the most advanced jumping platformer ever.

[@SO-ku9km]

But wheres the Wave dashing and frame 1 shines???

[@bweansFGC]

Soren Oster Nah where is my L-Cancel.

[@toonstink9448]

It's back 3 nintendo home consoles ago

[@watermelonwillface8952]

Dude, I was on seaside kingdom last night and pressed zl to shield-stop as a rolling rock was coming at me and realized I was playing the wrong game lol. I've done this in several (non melee) games, it's just muscle memory

[@pearlywhites3025]

will cuff I do the same thing but with dash dancing lol

[@thesaltmerchant4564]

Soren Oster in the epic platformer alpharad made a video on called wavedashing

[@comoa]

At 2:50 I did triple jump > throw Cappy > Dive > wall jump > turn > throw Cappy > Dive. But doing these techniques will really help you get to hidden places which makes the exploration in this game super satisfying.

[@ostint912]

MrBread after you dive you smash your face into a wall

[@nalonauts559]

Woah, there's so many movement options in this game. And I thought I knew them all before watching this video XD

[@magicalshark8021]

Nalo- Nauts I hope you are joking. You are very behind on here.

[@nalonauts559]

MagicalShark I knew a lot of the stuff like the cap dive and stuff, but I never thought to use the ground pound and cap combo that was used at 2:50

[@tacocatyay8740]

Ohh, well you are just learning the basics of the basics...

[@MagicMaster667]

"I wonder if the devs knew you could skip like that?" Sakurai's Team discovered L-cancelling during testing. -- Of course they always know.

[@mattypoko]

If you wanna go even larger distances, throw your cap, ground pound, then roll into it. It launches you very high and very far. Immediately after this, throw your cap while in the air and dive onto it. After, press B to do a little spin in the air with rainbows around you, then just dive afterwards. That's the farthest you can go in the game so far to my knowledge. How does no one know this?!

[@majorjohnny7517]

I can't roll into it, Everytime I try Cappy comes back to me,what am I doing wrong?

[@zayacrow8869]

I tried it and it seems like the little rainbow spin stops your momentum and you can get just as far with the long jump into cappy jumps

[@sinteleon]

I think it's better to do the rainbow spin after the first dive-cap-bounce instead, since it seems to cancel the momentum you gained from the initial roll-bounce-jumpp.

[@mattypoko]

Primarina Queen - That makes more sense. I'll change the comment.

[@halleysasteroid]

The first sentence sounds really weird out of context.

[@thebahooplamaster]

Who else wants to learn these tips without even owning the game?

Normie

[@dupeycupcakes839]

thebahooplamaster meee

[@zenonix5710]

thebahooplamaster I don't even have a switch xD

[@m.m.2897]

What I NEVER see anyone doing is pressing B! When you catch Cappy, press B to do a little air-stall. The same can happen on the ground, you can press B and do a very high jump! I do it all the time in my videos and in my own time. I like to go Jump, Throw And Hold, Dive, Jump Off Cappy, B when you catch it, Throw and Hold, and Dive.

[@m.m.2897]

NotToxicLord It gives you distance, though. If you aren’t gaining enough distance to get to one side to another and you just need a little more, air stalls work perfectly. It’s a lifesaver. You won’t really need the momentum anyway because you’re gonna dive right afterwards.

[@opiret44]

There's also this thing called hct (homing cap throw), it's where you press x/y, shake, a/b when cappy returns. This can be done before or after a cap jump.

[@nestoralvarado7787]

I unsubscribed to a ton of channels due to spoilers but you actually give good hints without ruining what I haven't gotten to yet. Thank you

[@Echocookie8948]

Pro tip: Use split Joy Con. Just do it.

[@yas6156]

Love how you say PRO tip with a Joy con XD #pun

[@HarryLin]

agreed, split joy con is much easier to swing around than pro con, at least for me

[@Albodee]

I beat the game with split joycons

[@MayroSMM]

I'd use the split Joy-Cons if it didn't hurt my hands to hold them like that.

[@Joker-bv3kr]

I hate it

[@ashercoates4345]

I did the long wall jump at a Best buy demo and the Nintendo Rep commented that it was pretty impressive.

Whenever I start watching one of these I say the intro in the same way Alex does. "Hello there lovely PEOple, Alex here from Nintendo life."

[@hassansiddiqui9140]

Oh my god I literally just put down my game. Now I have to go again. Maybe notifications do matter? 🤔

[@JohnRyder-]

Hassan Siddiqui I beat the final boss and was ready to move on then I discovered the parcour moves in koopa freerunning, now Im hooked

[@xseeings8676]

Tip: do a ground pound jump then throw Cappy dive on him and throw him again you go so high you wont even need to possess a frog in the cap kingdom

[@hfcred6754]

“Crazy tech jumps” that’s cute

[@candicegurwitz5649]

I agree

[@opiret44]

The most "crazy tech jumps" are "totally" cap jumps and ground pound jumps.

[@thegreatarcana]

6:56 You can just do a mid-air stall (press B when you retrieve Cappy from a throw)

[@Niseau]

so true you dont need mometum at all throw dive when he comes back b in air throw dive again made me cheese mecha broodal fight

[@ethanchapman901]

It's so weird watching this video almost three years later. So much more stuff has been found like vectoring, buffered spin pounds, roll vaults, etc.

[@christopherdehmer7930]

roll cancels, triple throws

[@thijsbrandhof3986]

Another great vid! Lovely content as always, Alex!

[@magicalshark8021]

Thijs Brandhof Lovely? More like overly delayed video. This was discovered just a little after release. LMAO.

[@donutgames777]

Here's something to get a little bit more length in the cappy combo. Jump. Throw. Dive. Right after you do the dive and bounce on cappy, press A or B and Mario will do a little spin thing in midair, giving you a LITTLE bit more length. Btw I only watched this to be able to do things Looygi or Mr Mario Oddysey the youtubers can. (Looygi is not spelled wrong, that's how he spelled it.)

[@drojas2005]

I legit got half of all these moons with tech jumps

[@hellprince1]

Alex, you gotta do that long jump near the pool In another fashion. Just long jump from the green fence along the left side. Just hop onto it and long jump from it. It gives you that extra little vitamin C that you seem to be lacking in the attempts 😄

[@Fgarfio01]

apoQ thats how i did it too, its pretty fun to watch what other people solutions are with all the different challenges

[@ShortTyler21]

Or you can just roll off of it by doing a ground pound, and pressing Y to get to max roll speed. The jump is straight forward from there.

[@heyguysitsky2997]

Also the triple jump! That gives nice height and momentum

[@ZimpleAzDat]

Triple jump is noob trash

[@ruben._._34577]

@@ZimpleAzDat this was when this wasn’t breathing

[@hunchily]

@@ZimpleAzDat it's useful in speedruns

[@ZimpleAzDat]

@@hunchily just use gp jump

[@hunchily]

@@ZimpleAzDat if you're running towards a railing you need to high jump off to get to another side, you can triple jump off it, but ground pound jumping is slower as you need to stand on the railing to perform it. backwards somersault is also quicker than gp jump

[@Keihart]

You are missing one jump in your long jumps. If after the first hat bounce you press the jump button as Mario recovers Cappy, Mario makes and extra jump that gives you some extra air time and eight.

[@tigergold5990]

it does not lower height actually

[@masteryoshi87]

I know a good and challenging jump for you NL. Go to the Steam Gardens through the warp art. then fall down to next platform. Then try jumping across to the really tall odd shaped red structure. Good Luck! I made it!!!

[@intorian9304]

Can you share where this warp art you're referring to is? I'm curious and want to try this jump.

[@masteryoshi87]

IAmBrett In the snow Kingdom. Capture the first Cloud wind enemy and fly to the other side and blow a blocked structure to the opposite side so you can get on top. There will be a picture to jump through leading you to the iron cage in the steam Gardens. From their fall down to the next platform and there you will see a tall structure toward your ship that you can somehow get to with long jumping and stuff. I took a screenshot of me standing on the structure. Sadly Nintendo didn't put any rewards or coins on it because I don't think they knew I was able to get on to it. Good luck!

[@bee5120]

Master Yoshi Everyone must have certain differences in the painting links. The painting in my Snow Kingdom actually leads to the Lake Kingdom, not the Wooded Kingdom.

[@zcoates9232]

whaaaaat how??

[@masteryoshi87]

Well what ever art brings you to the iron cage for you then.

[@jblen]

I made sure to spend extra long in the first world practising movement, and I think it paid off. Everything just feels so fluid when you get momentum going. Edit: I got up that girder block slightly differently. You run away from it for a bit so you don't end up crashing into the wall, turn and jump to do a side flip (same height as ground pound jump) throw cappy to the wall and dive, then wall jump and dive again.

[@ROGUESPIRIT_]

Better movement than sunshine

[@losermonkey666]

Watching this video TOTALLY made me a jumping MASTER that can do ANY jump, ANYWHERE!!!

[@MacksCohn]

Nice video. Very interesting.

[@bio2189]

Long jump, throw cappy, jump on him, dive, throw cappy again, and dive again. Love doing that, feels so satisfying and you can go so far

[@silent_mini_beast8034]

9:34 you could have just get ON the railing and then long jump from there. It can be a little tricky since you don't have much space on the railing but you actually can do that

[@joe6870]

3:06 I did that in another way, “ground pound” “jump” “throw cappy while holding Y, and make sure you did this from a little far area” “then dive then you bounce on cappy” “wall jump 1 time” “dive” and your up there”

[@acebharath]

10:52 helped me a lot. I was acutally stuck in this stage. Lol.

[@rmalish]

thanks this was one of the most helpful tutorials ive seen

[@Zyzer]

Wait but what how did u hold the cap and jump on joycons?

[@BreakGlassForMemes]

Zyzer You can hold Y to hold the cap out

[@SavageRodent]

There is like a half second window where you can release Y so you can dive, but you need to have Y held once you do the dive.

[@TheWereyCar]

You don't have to hold Y the entire time. If you throw cappy by holding y and immediately do a jump dive, you hold Y DURING the dive and you'll make it everytime.

[@RareNintenduo]

Savage Rodent Completely Wrong. Throw Cappy with Y, X or Shake. You don’t have to hold the button. When you dive, hold the button that you used to dive There should be no problems, since you don’t have to hold Y when you throw Cappy.

[@SavageRodent]

The Rare Nintendo You do need to hold the button because that's how you keep Cappy out there. If you don't you just fall through and don't bounce off Cappy. And you do have a half second window to release Y/X to do a dive onto Cappy. I just did it to confirm it. So what am I completely wrong about again?

[@Tom_TP]

I spent half an hour to do the high wall jump but couldn't quite get it with Alex's tutorial. I met a big problem that is after I ground pound jump to Cappy I couldn't reach Cappy because I stood to far from the wall. So actually we have to quickly move forward a liiitle bit between press+holding y and ground pound jump back. So the full correct combo is this: Jump(B) -> ground pound(ZL or ZR) -> jump(B) -> throw Cappy and hold(press + hold Y or X) -> move forward -> ground pound(ZL/ZR) -> jump and reach Cappy (B) -> wall kick (B) -> throw Cappy (Y or X) -> dive (ZR + X/Y). Man that is brutal, especially for a noob like me 🤯🤯. The timing is very specific

[@eaglsevn]

Proto Propski yeah they are pretty simple

[@sleepyventures8897]

Same here, I just experimented

[@ProtoPropski]

SleepyVentures Yeah, in my opinion that's the best way to play a game like Odyssey... it's all in how you feel your own way through, that teaches you.

[@Jamies-Jam]

I agree, and I love this guy's videos, but he isn't great at this game, and all the moves he showed are easy.

[@muhammadameruddin6455]

Play by myself without saw any tutorial or tips, this game already make me addicted. After this tips, I don't how addicted I can be lol

[@frostyjakeanimations1321]

I let 2 of my friends play odyssey together and whenever they wanted to do a techy jump they´d shout my name and i´d always blow their mind!

[@everettkuteira9994]

Kind of funny to watch this 3.5 years later.

[@Hand_L]

yeah

[@daimond8226]

He didn't explain the hat jump properly. You need to press B, Press X to throw Cappy, Press ZR to ground pound and then IMMEDIATELY after hold Y. That's how you do the cappy jump.

[@Xgil2Play]

I tend to do an actual ground pound when I'm trying to dive, am I not fast enough, or is it not consistent if I press ZR and Y at the same time?

[@KervLanger]

Lumify | Gil Your mistake is trying to press ZL and Y at the same time. You have to press ZL THEN Press and hold Y for the dive

[@Scuuurbs]

You can also just press and hold X after ZL/ZR (with Cappy thrown out) and he'll dive.

[@vedantsutar9340]

Daimond thank you bro

[@Max-fq7gk]

the trick is when you press ZL(R) and mario does a flip, you then press Y

[@mattcoakes5682]

I've been trying to get it right for so long and your tip about holding down the y button finally put it together for me. Thank you so much

[@elhighground8506]

I discovered all these by myself lol

I am so ready for the speedruns

[@samufinland5765]

I figured out the the Cappy dive before the game told me about it I edited the comment, you happy now, kids?

[@samufinland5765]

I also discovered that if you press A the moment Cappy is returned to you, Mario does a tiny, tiny air jump, covering slightly mode distance

[@YKplaysMC]

The game litteraly teaches it to you

[@samufinland5765]

Teaches at the post game area

[@ClownLordi]

Samu Rönkkö or when you pause the game and look at the controls, like most people did

[@samufinland5765]

Yeah no, the Action Guide does NOT tell you can combine a dive with a Cappy throw, I just checked, stop telling me it tells that

[@scottaification]

You're a Saint. I got it to work previously but I was throwing cappy with X and trying to keep the cap out and jump on it and couldn't

[@mrkitloin]

WOWOW!!! THANKS!! Without you i would have thought that getting on that box is impossible! after seeing your video, i got on top of in in a little under 5 minutes!!!

[@Mclovin_Mohammed]

Thx for this! My problem was the jumping on Cappy after diving. (Sometimes I just spam the jump button and the Cappy button until I do it right.)

[@Watkinsj516]

Wife had been asking me what I wanted for Christmas and I kept saying it didn’t matter....now, it matters!

THANK YOU so MUCH! This video was LIFE-CHANGING as a gamer. Forever subbed.

[@cashcreations8797]

I hope this man knows about triple throws

[@Some.guy2-r2j]

Whats a triple throw

[@ShortTyler21]

Great tips for beginners but when you get these jumps down, there are more things you can do. When you throw cappy, dive, then jump off him, press B at max height to do a rainbow spin, or if you want to get more advanced you can do what's called a homing cap throw. Thats where you do any jump you want off the ground, getting to the lowest point you can in your jump, throwing cappy with Y or X, then shake your remote immediately so cappy comes back. Right as he comes back, press B to do a rainbow spin, then throw cappy and jump off him. From there it's simple if you master the techniques in this video, but before you do the homing cap throw I recomend mastering the rainbow spin. Also if trying to go for max distance, do a roll cancel vector, which is hard to explain, but basically, you have to groundpound, holding ZL press X to roll, and while moving your analog stick to the left or right (depending on the jump), press Y and B which will cancel the roll and keep your momentum. All button presses for this vector has to be done in only one second because of not you will either long jump or keep rolling. What is recommended is right when you ground pound, slide your thumb from X down to Y and down to B in a matter of milliseconds. I don't recomend vectoring until you master cappy roll jumps, which is pressing and holding Y, ground pound then roll using X while still holding down Y at about a 90 degree angle from your jump goal and you will get some good distance. The reason I said to do the jump at an angle is because Mario moves the fastest when at a angle for some reason. Remember to get the timing right for most, if not, every jump to do it right and get the most distance. Master all of these and you will be very good at Super Mario Odyssey. Hope this was helpful to anyone. P.s. the jump at 9:00 is easy if you get on the rail, ground pound, then press Y to enter a roll and you will get over very easily, or just long jump off the rail and wont have to do any other jumps.

[@irusu.]

Mobility in this game is superb crazy to see that I know most of these things by just trying them and perfecting them myself like it always feel so fucking natural to discover how complicated tech work in this game and of course the ppl that are dedicated to this game use that and expand it even further and I fucking love to see it!!!!!!

[@irusu.]

I'm subbed !

[@raptyrn1290]

I loved it when i found my own combo of attack and mobility. Throw cappy down so he rolls, and then roll into him so you perform a nice far and high jump. Clear one enemy, skip over the next!

[@kieranbrown4852]

Finally someone who explains it properly! Thank you!

You can also stick to the wall by spamming the Cappy throw. I discovered that trying to (unsuccessfully) do one-sided wall jumps, lol. They almost work, but it can't get back into the wall slide in time. Nintendo knew what they were doing it seems, lol.

[@Spryte_]

The jump to the secluded tower from the second tallest tower is possible all in a long jump if you get momentum from long jumping on the railing or on the little piece of building hanging off next to the railing

[@benschram]

thanks, I knew I was crap at the hat jump as it's a completely new move I'm not used to yet in a SM game, I knew I had to just practice but seeing all this other stuff has given me motorvation to just practice it to git gud. Still on my first play-through but trying really hard to exhaust as many moons as I can on each level.

However, I do know a lot of these moves. There were a few that I don’t know and really should practice, thanks fer this

[@kakai2164]

I have another way to get up there. Go on the edge near the platform on the rail, ground pound jump, dive into a cappy jump, wall jump, turn around, throw cappy, and dive.

To go up high, you can also backflip, throw cappy beside the wall, bounce off him, wall jump, throw cappy, then dive on top

That jump you're trying to do to jump to the start of new donk city you'll want to do a cappy roll jump. It's a bit hard with the button presses but here's how you do it. Throw cappy with X (holding the entire time), jump with A, ground pound, and upon landing slide your thumb from X/A to X/Y. if done correctly you will throw cappy, ground pound roll, and then bounce off of happy giving you a huge boost of momentum and height.
