| '''Simian Spring''' is a special ability used by [[Diddy Kong]] from a [[Cranky's Kong Pad|Diddy Pad]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. Diddy can learn this ability after buying a potion from [[Cranky's Lab]] in [[Frantic Factory]] for seven [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s. | | [[File:Simian Spring.png|right|thumb]] |
| | | '''Simian Spring''' is move that [[Diddy Kong]] can utilize once he drinks one of [[Cranky Kong]]'s potions in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It is the third and last potion which Diddy receives from Cranky, and he can buy it for 7 coins in [[Frantic Factory]]; once the player steps on Diddy's pad, and presses {{button|n64|Z}}, Diddy will jump with his tail very high in the air (higher than his usual jump) and he'll be able to reach areas which was not accessible before. Diddy will also utilize this move in the [[DK Rap]] without the pad. |
| When Diddy is standing on a Diddy Pad, the player can press {{button|n64|Z}} to make him spring off the ground with his tail and perform a high jump, allowing him to reach higher areas.

| The scientific name of Simian Spring is ''Leapus Largium'', a play on the words "Leap" and "Large".
| |
| | |
| The Simian Spring is one of three Cranky Kong moves that are not actually required to beat ''Donkey Kong 64'', as it is not required in [[Hideout Helm]] or Diddy's section of the final battle against [[King K. Rool]], nor is it required to rescue [[Tiny Kong]] or majorly advance in any level. The other two are [[Baboon Balloon]] and [[Strong Kong]], which must be purchased anyway so that the [[OrangStand Sprint]] and [[Gorilla Grab]] can be unlocked.
