Hey guys,

I'm trying to get into smw speedrun (11 exit) since a few weeks and i'm getting stuck on some levels due to some technical/methods issues. So, I learnt every level routes but I have some questions.

What's up with the swimming technics? When I watch some races, especially for Star World 2, I notice that they can swin at full speed in an horizontal way or even while going down. But when I try to do it myself, Mario goes automatically upward so I have to input down which slows him.

And how do you Smashola glitch? I managed to do it while messing around but that's just a 5% ratio which is definitly not ok for speedruning.

I also can't find any guide for the Bowser fight (with cloud).

Of course I did search a lot through the internet but couldn't find my answers!

I hope you'll be able to help me, see ya!
