Record Information
RTA World Record	32.80 (Course) / 51.73 (with Red Coins)
Single Star World Record	31.39 (Course) / 51.71 (with Red Coins)
Bowser Throw World Record	31.89

Bowser in the Fire Sea is located behind Dire, Dire Docks in the basement. 30 stars are needed to access it without the use of a MIPS clip or SBLJ.

Reds

Beginner/Intermediate

Note: The beginning to this is the same as the advanced version of this star up until the second pole grab. You can watch that video for more insight on how to get a better starting angle if you're having trouble with the off angle and for lag reductions.

Advanced (Lava Boost Early Ellies)

Cage Movement Variations

Delayed sideflip
Pivot
Wall rub

After Cage Movement Variations

Longjump into burn
Double jump wallkicks
Rollout single jump
Triple jump

Ending Movement Backups

Double burn wallkick
Double burn ledgegrab
Ledgegrab backup

No Reds

Beginner (Normal Cycle)

Advanced (Early Cycle)

If you're a little late to early cycle, you can do a TJWK ledgegrab to reach the platform and still save ~5 seconds. Avoid getting a firsty, otherwise you'll wallkick too far away to be able to ledgegrab.

Backup for accidentally landing on the lava during the ending; continue holding straight down and press C-Left twice to line Mario up and land safely.
(This can also be performed on normal cycle.)

Pole Glitch

Pole Glitch is a very precise trick where it is important to do dustless movement. You want to maintain Mario's speed the best you can starting from this image.

Do not get any dust frames on the first rollout, or the trick gets harder.
Jumpdiving between these 2 red lines works best. This part is lenient. If you jumpdive early you will probably bonk on the bottom of the pole. Once again, try to be dustless on the following rollout.
You will land here after the rollout, and the single jump will need to be on the 1st frame after you land. This allows you to get as much height as possible. Hold A until you see Mario has warped. If you release too early, you will bonk.
