The '''Side Somersault''' (referred to as '''Side-flip''' by Prima Game Guides) is a high jump that debuted in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' which typically grants a small amount more height than the [[Backward Somersault|Backwards Somersault]]. It is useful when the player wants to immediately jump high to reach high ledges. To use it, the character must run in one direction, then simultaneously turn to run in the other direction and jump.

In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', Mario only needs to face in one direction and turn around; therefore, Mario could execute a Side Somersault with almost no space to move.
