The Princess's Secret Slide (Normal)
- For a tutorial on speedrunning this star, see the RTA Guide
To get this star, Mario must get to the end of the slide and break the box.
A Presses
There is 1 A Press required to get this star.[1]
It's required to collect the star that spawns from the box, because the star is 319 units high[2], but the maximum height of a star that a dive recover can reach is only 288 units high.
Do note that it is possible to open the box that spawns the star, just not collect it.
TAS
The TAS time is a 24.37[3] However, you can complete the slide with a faster IGT of 11.07 using Hyper Speed Wall Kicks.[4]
