I can't find any guides on how to jump on the spinning platforms. I've watched youtube videos for the specific stars where you have to do this trick with control inputs, so I tried to click the same buttons.

I can't seem to do this trick, so any help would be appreciated. :)

I haven't played this game in a while but here's what i recommend... (I think you should only do it if you have sub 55 on 70 star) You want C left and point the camera towards the wall and then hold up and the joystick and do your first jump. Immediately after you land go in to an up right position on your joystick and finish off the triple jump... i haven't got my n64 hooked up, so I can't actually show you how to do it but it is a hard trick and took me a few weeks to perfect it

Thanks for the reply, Busbyy.

I finally got it for the first time! :D Now I'll train to get it consistent. :)

EDIT: OMG! I did it for the second time in only a few minutes! I feel so proud now, haha!

I believe it's also faster to jump kick instead of just jumping but yeah Congratulations! :) I don't know how long it'll take for you to get consistent at it, but good luck! :)
