The speedrunning community for Super Mario 64 just got a shake-up with a new technique called 'crackslide.' Discovered by FramePerfection and Crackhex, this method could make the traditional side backwards long jump (SBLJ) irrelevant after almost 30 years. Bubzia, a noted blindfolded speedrunner, demonstrated how this maneuver helps bypass a crucial door in Peach's Castle. This change could lead to more competitive runs and might finally help players break the 10-minute mark in blindfolded categories. Are you looking forward to seeing how it changes the game? {{embed type="youtube" url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDIxb6FX3RU"}}
