Long Jump

This move is used only in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS by all four characters. To use this move, Crouch while in motion and Jump. If the player did this correctly, the character would Jump a long horizontal distance. Many people beat the game without ever learning this move. Mario will regain this move once again in Super Mario Galaxy.

It is possible, yet hard, to do this backwards. When done as so, it is usually refered to as a Backward Long Jump
