Hello! I just started running. I have two very noob questions. I notice people do instant slides. How exactly do you do that? Mine either don't work, or completely run out of momentum. Another problem is the big water gun if you know what I am saying. Where you shoot the huge blast of water. I am not sure about how to do that. Thanks!
The first thing you're talking about is a hoverslide. This is performed by hovering for a very short time to create a puddle of water underneath Mario, and then diving into it to initiate a waterslide.
The second technique is called spam spraying, this is done by pressing R and A at the same time. Be wary that you need to press down R all the way, and if you want to do multiple spamsprays in a row it's best to fully release R inbetween.
