This section demonstrates the beginner strategy of long jumping into the tree.  To get up to the star platform, the sideflip method is recommended for beginners and advanced runners.
For the slide-kick into the star done on most strats, run a bit before slide-kicking in order to catch the star before Mario bounces on the ground, saving some time between hitting the star and the star-get cutscene starting.
