This is the seventh (Part A) segment of the World Record SDA run on Super Mario 64 DS. I am uploading special versions of the SDA videos just to show the file select screen too. This is what I've said in my run comments
Segment 7
One of the two mega segments that collects over 15 stars!
Star 28: Shifting Sand Land (SSL) In the Talons of the Big Bird.
This star had a bit of luck that sometimes the bird may move to its next destination sooner or later. It's better to let the bird move later so that you can grab it sooner and get the star.
Star 29: SSL: Stand Tall on the Four Pillars:
This star went pretty well, the pre-boss room went well as I planned. It's possible to go near the wall and jump and (fingers cross) Luigi would jump high enough to grab the ledge. This method doesn't always work, so the back flip method I did was reliable. The boss was being nice so I got the star easy.
*The change on the slope mechanics makes triple jumping impossible, therefore the DS version requires using the bouncy crate same goes for the next 2 stars.
Star 30: SSL: Inside the Ancient Pyramid.
Inside the pyramid, instead of going around the interior level design, why not go to the middle and abuse Luigi's Back Flips, I can get to the top of the pyramid in no time.
Star 31: SSL: Shining atop the pyramid.
A short, easy star with 1 simple mistake that cost around 3-5 seconds I would have retried the entire segment but I carried on until finding out I was satisfied overall.
Star 32: Leval Lava Land (LLL): Boil the Bully
I played a bit safe on this one by using the 2nd jump to a scuttle to a mid-air kick combo to get across the lava from the flame turret to Big Bully. The boss was defeated quickly so I got the star very quickly.
Star 33: LLL: Bully the Bullies:
This star is quite tough if the small bullies do not co-ordinate with you. Fortunately they did co-ordinate with me and Big Bully was defeated by the 2nd fastest way (timing your jump kicks) so its counts as a minor mistake.
Star 34: LLL: 8-Coin puzzle with 15 pieces.
With D-Pad controls it's not easy dominating this star. Which is why I didn't performed any dives and flips.
Star 35: LLL: Red-Hot Log Rolling
Luigi & Flower Power = Invisibility = Go through fence.. One of the few times that made this star really easy to obtain.
Star 36: LLL: Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano
Luigi's back flip abuse inside the volcano can be really effective. I did the centre route and then pole Jump to get the "Hot-Foot-It" star.
* The centre platforms seems to be higher than the N64 counterpart that it's possible to get the 5th star this way by a pole jump or a Luigi Flip.
* The Lava Fall is just a slight angled wall so you can't damage boost up to the star.
*The flame turret on the centre route is now removed.
Star 37: LLL: Inside the Volcano:
I had a small mistake when trying to jump onto the rotating platform. It was the last notable mistake of this segment too. The strat is very similar to the Hot Foot It Star but this time I pole jump to the other star.

whats the fastwst way of killing bully coz u said u used the 2nd fastest meathod

The fastest way is baiting the big bully to the edge. This can be done easily if you go to the edge of the platform and then wait for him to chase you. Then do a back flip and land on his back so that it pushes him over the edge of the platform. I did something like that on star 32 at 5:05 :)

I don't understand who gave this 1 star!
You made some mistakes, but the segment is good for its length!
