Near Roll into the Cage, Mario now uses [[HSG|hyperspeed grinding]] to build up speed in the "Sidney Spot".<ref>[https://youtu.be/3I7y6zYEOGU "Interesting TTC Hyperspeed Spot" by Sidney600SM64]</ref> This essentially works by repeatably falling and landing, which can gain speed over time via air movement. Once Mario has enough speed, he can jump out of the spot, converting his horizontal speed to vertical speed, allowing him to land in the area near the The Pit and the Pendulums star. This is the first A press. | Near Roll into the Cage, Mario now uses [[HSG|hyperspeed grinding]] to build up speed in the "Sidney Spot".<ref>[https://youtu.be/3I7y6zYEOGU "Interesting TTC Hyperspeed Spot" by Sidney600SM64]</ref> This essentially works by repeatably falling and landing, which can gain speed over time via air movement.

From here, Mario makes his way to the Pit and the Pendulums area where the back pendulum is manipulated via RNG. This eventually increases the magnitude of the arm movement enough to allow Mario be able to ride up the arm to get close to a [[pedro spot]] that is located above the pendulum box in the corners.<ref>[https://youtu.be/E0GbkSrx9Ik "TTC Pedro Spot on Pendulum Box" by pannenkoek2012]</ref> Having ridden the arm into a relatively close position, Mario is pushed into the ceiling by the pendulum arm.

A bob-omb is dropped onto Mario from above, knocking him onto the box. Finally, the pendulum arm pushes him into position in the pedro spot. From this spot, Mario manipulates the RNG to be in good condition for a later part of the TAS. | ||
Mario now is able to build up large amounts of speed in this position (roughly | Mario now is able to build up large amounts of speed in this position (roughly 680), despite having to occasionally sacrifice speed to avoid the pendulum arm. Once he has enough speed, Mario jumps out of the spot by landing on the pendulum arm. Jumping converts the horizontal speed to vertical speed, giving Mario massive amounts of upwards mobility. (This is the second press). This speed is immediately conserved by landing on the floor directly about the spot. From here, Mario punches to the edge of the cage. At this point, all Mario needs to do is wait for the upper hand to get into position to land on. Once it is Mario falls off, using the upwards speed to navigate onto the upper clock hand and landing with C^ to conserve his vertical speed (VSC). | ||
Once on the hand, the hand ticks counter clockwise to the right side of the treadmill. This is a fairly uncommon occurrence- the hand ticks clockwise three times as often as counter clockwise, and has ticks three times as large. This rare situation is why the RNG manipulation on the pendulum box was important. Once the hand is near the treadmill, Mario punches off the hand and lands on the thwomp. From here, grabbing the star only requires a dive recover. | Once on the hand, the hand ticks counter clockwise to the right side of the treadmill.
