Curently I've found the fastest Route to be all Right turns. This can be done easily with 6 balloons (5S rank, 1B+ rank).

If I'm able to cut 11 seconds off my paddle time by better pathing, not bonking or collecting additional clocks. I think it could be possible to do the run with only 5 balloons (all S rank).

I think 1P fastest would be 6 balloons. But I’ve only been able to get it with 7 so far. With normal oar

@mdmason85 5 is technically possible with ai, but it mainly exists for humans
