Editing Side Somersault

[[File:SM3DL-Mario Side Somersault Artwork.png|thumb|250px|Artwork from ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'']]
The '''Side Somersault''' (or '''side somersault'''), named '''Side-flip''' by [[Prima Games]]' guides and also named '''Cartwheel''',<ref>{{cite|date=March 1997|publisher=EMAP|language=en-gb|title=''Nintendo Official Magazine'' (UK) issue 54|page=20}}</ref> is a high [[jump]] that debuted in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. It 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 [[dash|run]] in one direction, then simultaneously turn to run in the other direction and jump.

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

[[Bowser]] uses a Side Somersault in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' as one of his moves in the second battle against Mario.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', [[Yoshi]] can also side-somersault.
