canHBJ (Expert)

A Horizontal Bomb Jump (HBJ) uses three bombs to execute. Place a bomb to get boosted horizontally; place a second bomb immediately as Samus is propelled. Place a third bomb, mid-air, as far horizontally as possible while still being able to return and get propelled by the second and then third bombs.

Junction (Above Bottom Rippers)

Starting on the right ledge at the bottom of Red Tower, wall jump just below the middle plant, just above the top ripper. Place two bombs out of the wall jump landing on the first bomb and getting boosted by both. While rising, place two more bombs for a second HBJ. Colliding with the side of the ledge after the third bomb can help.

Top Right Ledge Junction

Hug the right wall after killing the first Cacatac in order to avoid its invisible, stationary projectiles. After getting to the small island platform, diagonal IBJ up while avoiding the top Cacatac. Alternatively HBJ to the next platform and Spring Ball from the right edge of this platform into an IBJ above the spikes.
