+A '''Side Somersault''', or colloquially '''side flip''', is a "jump" that is caused when the A button is pressed during the [[Turning Around|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|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|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)
