Bowser's Castle has a 3lap viable [[ultra shortcut]], which uses [[supergrinding]] and [[wallclips]]. Outside the ultra shortcut, it also currently benefits from the use of two large shortcuts deemed [[community shortcuts]] in both 3lap and flap categories, while also the use of [[supergrinding]] in flap categories. Hence, it has three 3lap and three flap categories. However, no TAS exists for an Unrestricted 3lap which implements the ultra shortcut, so the No Ultra 3lap is the Unrestricted 3lap record record for the time being.

=== Unrestricted Flap ===
