The Long Jump (alternatively spelled long jump), called Leap on the official Super Mario 3D Land website,[1] is a move used in the 3D Super Mario games since Super Mario 64 (except Super Mario Sunshine, due to the presence of FLUDD and the Hover Nozzle). It also appears in the side-scrolling games Super Mario Run and Super Mario Maker 2 (Super Mario 3D World style only), as well as in Donkey Kong 64. To use this move, the player usually must crouch while in motion and jump, causing the character to jump a long horizontal distance. The move is primarily used to clear huge gaps between platforms and move faster; this is especially helpful in timed missions.

In Super Mario 64, there is a glitch where Mario can perform this move backwards, which increases his speed, allowing him to access certain areas without having to collect the required number of Power Stars; this was patched out in the Shindō Pak Taiō Version, iQue Player, and Super Mario 3D All-Stars rereleases, as well as the DS remake.

In Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, this move can be chained with a spin to perform a double kick, which can defeat enemies and activate items. From these games onward, Mario and Luigi cannot long-jump into a Wall Jump.

Mario performing a Leap
A Long Jump in Super Mario 3D Land

In both Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World, characters can long-jump out of a Roll (referred to as a Rolling Leap in the former game), making the jump faster and longer. While they can long-jump backwards in both games, their speed is always capped, unless they move sideways.[2][3]

In Super Mario Run, characters long-jump if the screen is tapped while they are on a Long Jump Block. Landing from a Long Jump prompts a Landing Roll irrespective of falling distance or speed. If the player does a Landing Roll on a Long Jump Block and jumps, the player uses a combined version of the Long Jump and Rolling Jump.

In Super Mario Odyssey, Mario can perform the Long Jump when ZL Button or ZR Button is pressed when he starts crouching after he runs. This can be done for infinite times until either he bumps into a wall or the player lets go of the button required to do so.

In Super Mario Maker 2, characters can perform a Long Jump in levels in the Super Mario 3D World style much like in the original game,[4] by pressing the shoulder buttons while moving.

In Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, stomping enemies during a Long Jump automatically makes characters perform another Long Jump, rather than a normal jump.
