== Dash Tech ==
Dash Tech refers to techs that require a dash to use, and tend to be simple yet useful. Most dash tech can be Extended, meaning you regain a dash by touching the ground for longer; or Reversed, meaning you dash in one direction but launch in the other direction. Reversing a tech is a handy way to Extend it without much ground room, and as such, Reversed + Extended tech is only referred to as Reversed, as reversed techs grant the same benefits as extended versions.
Many of the Dash Techs can be fine-tuned with the duration that the Jump button is held. The longer it is held, the higher the tech will go and the longer Madeline will stay in the air. Very short hops are known as Bunnyhops, while holding the button down as long as possible is a Full Jump.

Line 29 ⟶ 31:
<u>Reversed:</u> Dash in one direction, but press the opposite direction (after the Dash) before Jumping. Madeline will be launched in the opposite direction.
<u>Variant - Mid-Air Hyper:</u> See '''Demohyper''' below.[[File:Wavedashing.gif|thumb|240x240px|Wavedash and Reverse Wavedash]]
=== Wavedash (Wave) ===
Line 68 ⟶ 67:
== Dashless Tech ==
Dashless Tech refers to techs that don't need a dash to use, and tend to be more complex or precise. Unlike the dashing variants, these cannot be extended or reversed.
=== Fastfalling (Fastfall) ===
One of the simplest techs to perform, Fastfalling will (you guessed it) make Madeline fall faster. Air friction will remain the same. To fastfall, hold Down while in mid-air
=== Bunnyhop (Bhop) ===
A Bunnyhop is little more than hitting the jump button for as little time as possible. Repeated
=== Cornerkick ===
Line 84 ⟶ 83:
If crouching before a Jump, Madeline will remain crouched while jumping; and can climb while still being crouched. To do this, hold Crouch, then Jump while holding Crouch. You can throw a Grab into the mix and climbjump at the same time.
=== Neutral Jump (Neutral) ===
{{Main|Neutrals}}Neutrals are one of the most fundamental dashless techs, used in a variety of base game and modded maps. They are moderately hard to learn, but easier to master. To do a neutral, kick off a wall ''without'' holding a direction, then immediately hold a direction towards the wall; repeat until the wall is climbed.
Line 90 ⟶ 89:
=== 5 Jump ===
5 Jumps use two climbjumps - one after the other - to clear 5 tiles in a single jump. To do a 5 Jump, climbjump off a wall (straight up), and as you hit/grab onto the wall again, climbjump and move left or right.
<u>Variant - 6 Jump:</u> See '''Cornerboost''' below.
=== Dreadcorner ===
A Dreadcorner refers to jumping on the corner of terrain
=== Cornerboost (Cboost) ===
Line 108 ⟶ 109:
Dream Jumps grant a small upwards (but mostly horizontal) speed boost when exiting Dream Blocks. Simply press Jump as you leave the dream block.
<u>Dream Double-Jump</u>: Spamming the jump button twice right as Madeline makes it out of the dream block allows for a longer jump than a normal dream jump. This may not be possible without binding two jump buttons.
=== Dream Super/Hyper ===
Line 184 ⟶ 185:
== Modded Tech ==
Modded Tech is not found in the base game nor its speedruns, but still exists. It can be used in modded levels where the mapmaker uses in-game elements in a way not found in the vanilla levels.
=== Dream Redirect ===
Line 204 ⟶ 205:
When transitioning between two screens, Madeline's dash(es) and stamina are restored.
=== Coyote Time/Jump ===
Madeline is allowed to jump for a few frames after leaving a platform.
=== Fastbubbling ===
Press Dash while inside of a stationary bubble to make it move sooner. Dashing inside a moving bubble will use your dash and make Madeline dash outside of the bubble, interrupting it.
=== Ledges ===
Ledges refer to the corner(ish) of a tile that doesn't actually have spikes on it, but next to it (usually on a wall). These are completely safe to stand on, although they are rather tiny. To stand on them, stand just next to the corner of the tile.
This is not to be confused with Dreadcorners; Dreadcorners are only the pixel edge on the corner of a wall, but ledges can be stood on and allow for more leniency.
=== Directional Spikes ===
Spikes will not hurt Madeline if she is travelling away from them or in the direction that they point. This is the method behind Spikejumps and one-way gates.
== Trivia ==
* 1A - Dashless tech is used extensively for 1A's Winged Berry. The Cornerkick named "Coffee Jump" refers to the Cornerkick in the room with the coffee shop in the background.
* 2A - Screen Transitions are used
* 3A - The Elevator Shaft Demo strategy in 3A requires a
* 5A - The Keyskip strategy in 5A requires a Reverse Super.
* The bird will tell you multiple techs throughout the game. Notably: Dashing, in Prologue; Dream Jumps, in Old Site B; Wallbounces, in Summit B; and Hyperdashes, in Core C. The game will teach Wavedashes to the player in Farewell.
* The Demodash was discovered by the player [[Community:DemoJameson|DemoJameson]] on October 14, 2018. It was subsequently named after him.
