Stamina Management

Stamina in Tears of the Kingdom works relatively the same as in Breath of the Wild but with the patch of any infinite stamina.

The general idea is you want sprint in straight lines and hold down the B button up until right before you run out. Holding is important because if you let go and/or tap the B button you lose stamina at a much faster rate than holding.

Fall Damage Canceling

Fall damage canceling in Tears of the Kingdom consists of changing from diving to the normal falling animation and then grabbing a wall.

A simple method to maintaining the speed in air you receive from Tulin's wind ability which can be used to make it slightly farther distances you may not be able to do otherwise.

Simply press B followed by X to cancel and reopen the paraglider towards the end of the glide.

Double Jump

Pretty standard way to gain more distance.

Simply forward hop then shield surf
