Speedrunners say Young Link's new dash is not the fastest way to travel in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2.
The remake added a dash option, but rolling remained quicker, and now speedrunners have time-trialled Young Link dashing and rolling across Hyrule. On Wednesday, November 11, 2026, they found a technique called forward hop roll-cancelling, which chains front hops and immediate rolls to cancel end lag. The method shaved about four seconds off a run from Koriki Forest to Hyrule Castle.
