Quick Light is a WTFTPAW off of the entrance highway wall. It is the fastest way of getting to Light Side.

You must grind up the spiral dragon high enough to jump onto the highway wall; then, skate on top of it and jump through the wall to land in the Light Side cop fight.

If you fall off the highway wall and land in the plaza, it's faster at that point to just boost through the tunnel and enter Light Side normally.

Tips: Trick less in air to help align your skates up with the highway wall.

A hop may be performed after landing to adjust the angle of skating if the landing was less than perfect.

By interrupting cop dialogue with the Dragon's Tail cutscene, the cop dialogue never finishes which despawns any remaining cop triggers in the level.

This trick has two requirements: you must reload the level to start the cop dialogue; and you must have already completed one cop fight to trigger the Dragon's Tail cutscene. Reloading the level is easily done via switching characters at the save point. Since the Light Side cop fight is always faster than the Dark Side fight, we do Quick Light to beat the Light Side fight immediately, then use this glitch to skip the Dark Side fight as we begin to spray the plaza.

Beware that if you reload the level again after performing this trick, the cop dialogue will start again and the cop fights will respawn. Since you can only watch the Dragon's Tail cutscene once, you will be forced to do the Dark Side fight.

There's also a WTFTPAW that allows access to Dark Side quickly that's used in newer routes. Routes that use this trick will skip the high wire soul above the Dark Side tunnel, meaning that this trick is more valuable in categories that have revisits.

This is a slightly quicker way of getting up to the top of the Light Side tunnel on your way back to the plaza. You can jump from the rail of the bridge onto the umbrella, then jump up to the upper area.

This is a name for the quick little hop you do from Straight Dragon to Spiral Dragon. This is the fastest way of climbing Spiral Dragon.

With good execution, you can manipulate which flags Rapid 99 go for, allowing you to end the battle as quickly as possible. If you follow these steps, the battle is 100% consistent:

1. Ignore the first flag and go straight to the Dark Side bridge for the 2nd flag.

1. • Try not to damage the R99 to your right as there is a small chance it'll break their AI, which could kill this manip.

2. Stand exactly where the 2nd flag will spawn. Once R99 picks up the first flag, you should pick up the 2nd one immediately.

This is a trick for randomizer to access the high-altitude Light Side graffiti in chapter 2, when it's still fenced off. You must jump from the zig-zag rail in the middle of Light Side at a very precise angle to squeeze through the fence collisions. To exit, simply skate out normally through the gap.

This is a trick for randomizer to access the graffiti at the end of the Dark Side roof maze in chapter 2, when it's still fenced off. You must boost jump to a small platform in the middle of the dark mazes, adjust your jump angle, and jump to the open gap on the second to last platform. From there, you can easily hop to the graffiti and exit through the destructible wall.

The minimum requirement to unlock the special soul is to touch-grind three rails in clockwise order around the tower: 1. after 東, 2. after 西, 3. before 東, and land on the ground.

A name for a specific blue can in Dark Side. Tricky to get since you usually can't see it.

A name for a specific frameboost in Dark Side. Relatively free to go for.

There are several of these rail-into-billboard setups in 99th Street. If you fall off the end of the rail and hold away from the wall (either left or right depending on what direction the setup is facing), you'll get a stall launch from the billboard. You can chain this into a frameboost since there's usually another rail after the billboard.

It's possible to jump onto and off of the spotlights while still spraying them. Doing this for the first spotlight right after Quick Light is optimal by a second or two.

The fastest way to grab the soul on the umbrella in categories that require it (Souls%, 100%, 100% NPG) is called Secret of the Turtle. It is performed by jumping to the right side of the umbrella, grabbing the soul from the right, then jumping back to the wire by using the speed provided by the umbrella slope.

All highway walls in JSRF (in all levels) do not have collision on their ends, allowing you to jump into the walls and skate inside them. This could allow you to death warp or go OoB in certain areas. Although this isn't useful in 99th Street, it does still exist. It is theorized that a Quick Light setup could be found with this trick.
