A Side Somersault, or colloquially side flip, is a "jump" that is caused when the A button is pressed during the turning around action or the finish turning around action. It gives Mario up to 512 units of vertical distance, equally as high as a backflip. Unlike a backflip, Mario can ledge grab from a side flip.

Conditions for Action to Occur

Mario has to meet two conditions:

Mario is either in turning around action or the finish turning around action
The A button is pressed

Transition In

See single jump for more details

Mario's vertical speed is set to 62.
Mario's forward velocity is set to 8
Mario's y-facing angle is set to the intended yaw (joystick yaw).

Checks

Whilst Mario in in the side jump action, the following checks are done on Mario:

If the B button is pressed, Mario will dive
If the Z button is pressed, Mario will ground pound
If Mario is able to ledgegrab, he will
The game performs vertical wind checks

Behavior

The following behaviors can be observed when Mario side flips:

Mario can double jump after landing from the flip
The flip sound plays (this is the same sound as when Mario backflips)
