@3102werdnA It's called Spring Ball. in Metroid Prime 3 (And Metroid Prime Trilogy, in any of the games after you acquire bombs), you can jump without laying a bomb by flicking the remote.
Ya i was trying to put that it my test run but decided it wasn't worth it after screwing it up too many times. In a real run that is segmented it should be used. Single segment i really don't think it is worth it. And you would also jump the last corners too.
Yeah, doing this in a single segment would be incredibly risky. I only said "somewhat" risky assuming this would be used in a segmented run. Imagine doing a perfect single segment run up to this point and then falling. Now, that would really suck.
It's actually not as risky as it looks. But it probably wouldn't be worth doing anyway. I just watched craztad's test speedrun vid for this section, and doing it normally takes 10 seconds. My way nearly took 8. 2 whole seconds saved...
I tride speed running once. 10 minutes in I figured it wasn't worth it and this clearly shows why xD.

Norion is still early; SS runs with this trick are still feasible.
