RTABC Guide/Find the 8 Red Coins

This is a guide for how to beat the star Find the 8 Red Coins in 0 A presses.
Method
7 of the 8 Red Coins are easily accessible; however, the final one is on the Island in the Sky. There are two ways of getting to the island. The first one is more tedious and uses a Goomba Bridge. Some important things to note about cloning are: Mario needs to be higher than the Bob-Omb to not get knocked back, grabbing the Bob-Omb and pause buffering until Mario drops it makes grabbing it fake much easier, hat in hand should be used when releasing clones and should then be deactivated by teleporting for setting the HOLP, and any Goombas killed or coins collected are required for the cloning setup.
The second way isn't nearly as tedious, but it's much more precise. Getting to the top of the mountain on the shell and slidekicking with the right speed, angle, and timing can just barely make it to the island. This can be made easier by placing a Goomba clone to bounce on for extra distance, though this isn't nearly as fast (see Shoot to the Island in the Sky).
