Sonic and the Secret Rings - Erazor Djinn - 0:59:51

The method for speedrunning this boss sounds pretty simple on paper (wait for L/Z slash, Time Break, repeated quick homing attacks, cancel Time Break, repeat), but when actually trying it, it's a bit annoying, simply because delivering rapid homing attacks during Time Break is very difficult for whatever reason (either it's the Wiimote or something with the game, though the former is more likely). A semi-reliable method is, when high above Erazor, rapidly shake the Wiimote when the lock-on marker appears.
I've recently seen a vid showing how sub-30 is possible, but it was after making this one. I didn't want this to go to waste, so here it is...
Skill-wise, Ring Exchange is not needed, but helps (Crest of Wind also doesn't really matter, honestly); Homing Recovery and H-Mega Expand are a must (the latter, though, I'm unsure about)' and any of the Surge skills I'm very unsure about (though I doubt it matters at all).
