canCWJ (Expert)

A continuous wall jump (CWJ) consists of a wall jump without turning around. It can be done by spinjumping forward and then wall jump off a solid object to retain all forward momentum. The more speed Samus has, the smaller the frame window for the CWJ. A slow CWJ uses a wall or ledge near the initial jump point, while a fast CWJ will wall jump using the opposite side of a more distant platform.

Align with the wall below the door while facing left. Hold dash, turn around, start running and arm pump once. Jump from the rightmost 'X' in the background.
