Speed tricks and other

Bosses

The first boss takes 8 hits. The bosses after take two more hits each time (so 24 for the last boss). Each boss shoots fireballs in the same spots. Since the boss is sped up for every area, the timing between fireballs changes however.
The timer for ending the level starts when the boss flies off screen (7 first bosses). The further the screen is scrolled to the right, the longer it will have to fly off before leaving the screen. The difference can be almost half a second.
The last boss always drops down from the rightmost position of the platform. You therefore need to adjust how far to scroll the screen to avoid it walking too much after taking the last hit.

Section skips with bonus levels

In 2-3 and 7-3, it's possible to skip the last section of the level. See the routing section for videos. The explanation is that if you hop on to the bonus platform while moving with the default skateboard speed (49), you'll barely trigger the checkpoint for the fourth section of the level before going into the bonus. Since the bonus stages always returns you to the section following the one you were in, this means you'll re-appear right before the goal. The setup is so particular and no other bonus platforms are placed in similar locations, so this trick only works here (and unfortunately there is no bonus in 5-2).

Snake poison

Snakes spit poison if you during the level have thrown an axe against an object that bounces it off (stone, rock or egg). Combined with the fairy, it's possible to get a big score boost with this trick, but it doesn't have any use for a serious speedrun.
