PIANTA EARLY

Pianta Early is the transition from Gelato Beach to Pianta Village, called this because you're not supposed to get to Pianta Village without the rocket nozzle. Specific movement can change runner to runner but getting up the Shine Gate is always the same.

EXPLANATION

Momentum Spin

A different type of momentum spin than in Bianco 5, in this case press B to dive onto the roof spin the stick as you're falling onto it ending with the stick in the direction you want to go (in this case up) and tap A repeatedly.

Spin Jump vs. Triple Jump

Triple jumps also work instead of a spin jump on the shine gate, however I recommend learning the spin jump method as it is much easier in the long run.

Y-Turns

The spin jump on the Shine Gate is the first example of a Y-turn in the run. These are very useful for turning in mid-air or diving around corners. In order to do a spin jump Y-turn, do a normal buffered spin jump except press Y at the same time as A when jumping. It's very easy to do this using one finger similar to jump diving. While in the air hold left on the stick until you're going at the wall and spam A to exit Y camera.
