Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards Speed Run (100% Completion) Part 4

This is a speed run for Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards on the Nintendo 64. I did not do this speed run. I got it from www.speeddemosarchive.com. I got it for all those Kirby fans out there, and non-fans alike. So please don't accuse me of copyright infringement, or plagurism. Enjoy.

Author's comments:

Kirby 64 is unique. Not because of Kirby's abilities, or the combo powers, but because you can become a curling stone. (check out 4-3 and 4-4)

I love this game. It has what I think to be one of the coolest final bosses and the coolest final boss music. I'll probably run it again in the future. So any advice would be helpful.

I hope you like the double fire combo, because I use it a lot. I'm sure the first level is the quickest place to get it.

Mistakes- there are small ones here and there, mostly landing into enemies after using the fire combo. But this is easily the best looking run of this game out of the 100 or so times I've attempted it. Some bigger mistakes are:
Boss of second world: lost the electric double combo. I was going to hit two of the crystals, but still almost beat them the first round.
Level 5-4: (where I start getting rusty) Accidentally destroy the cutter power, and go thruough a little backtracking. Then I get squished (my only death in the run), which costs maybe about a minute.
Level 6-1: Lost my fire combo. Was only going to use it twice more, so no big time loss. Then I was flailing about to get on the shortest platform in the level (where I get burned).
Level 6-2 and 6-3: Urrg, lost the electric power I was going to combo with the cutter for the double light saber. Was going to use it in 6-3, but I get it eventually anyways. In 6-3 I was sliding into the enemies in the frst area because I thought one of them had electric.

That third shard in the third level I couldn't get for the longest time. I didn't know about the powers of the transformations until I looked it up on GameFAQs, and then I felt really stupid.

The rock cutting ability is my favorite, because it can let you turn into the bird that can fly forever (not really) and the really fast swimming fish. I remember playing the kirby game that had those characters in it. Kirby would be able to join with a partner (AKA the statues that kirby turns into) Then he would have a different power as apposed to if he had the power without a buddy.
