 * There are several methods to skip Globox's "Rayman is the greatest" text.
 ** Face the wall near the plank leading to the pirate, then jump and shoot. If you did it right, your shot will bounce off the wall and hit the switch. This method also skips the pirate fight, making it faster than the methods that don't skip the pirate, but bouncing the shot correctly can be difficult.

 * In the room with the floating plant, you can jump on Globox's head to get the Lum above the plant. This lets you skip watering the plant in 100%. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWJfGviF2kE Video (#3)]
 * You can skip fighting the pirate on a set of faraway platforms. Jump against the corner between the metal frame and the wall to the right of the laser fence. If you time it right, a shot from the pirate will boost you upward. Shoot to [[Rayman_2:_The_Great_Escape#Fast_Recovery|regain control]], then hold forward to land on the metal frame. From there, you can jump past the fence. Note that if you do this trick, Globox will not follow you, so you must skip hiding in the bush at the end of the level (see below).

 ** A harder method is to grab the purple Lum, swing directly toward the door, and jump. If you did it right, you'll make it through the door before it closes. It seems helpful to keep A pressed and hold forward after jumping. Also, the trick seems easier on [[Rayman_2:_The_Great_Escape#Graphics_Settings_and_Lag|high resolution]].
