Raptor boost slide

[Eternal Yoshi]

I was messing around in training mode with Falcon, and discovered something odd. If you Raptor boost on an edge that is slanted upwards when you are at a low height, you will slide onto the stage. The distance varies by timing and angle. Try it on Yoshi's Island and Pictochat's edges. When done propely, Falcon will slide to the center of the stage. When you do it correctly, it looks like an edge waveland.

Cool, i'll try this once I get home. Very interesting.

It was fond before but never tested,

can you do any actions while your sildeing?

 

[Eternal Yoshi]

Aproximately half a second after landing, you are free to move. You can move before you finish sliding.

I happens to me all the time on Lylat Cruise becuase the starship rolls to both sides when it turns. This also cuts lag time, know when to use what recoveries!
