Overview

| Type | Unrestricted | No Ultra | No Glitch |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3lap | 1:44.159 | 1:56.391 | |

DS Peach Gardens has a 3lap viable ultra shortcut, which uses wallclips, pseudo-HWG, wall hugging, OOB seam riding, respawning to save time, and superhopping. Outside the ultra shortcut, it also currently benefits from the use of supergrinding and superhopping in 3lap and flap categories. Hence, it has three 3lap and three flap categories. Since no Unrestricted 3lap exists which uses ultra shortcuts, the No Ultra Flap is technically the current Unrestricted 3lap record.
Unrestricted Flap
The current strategy for UR flap is to perform the ultra shortcut.
