Goron Damage Boost

Because Goron Link's pound attack (A + B) gives him a lot of height, combining it with damage boosts using bombs or enemies is a powerful tool for getting over fences and walls. Link will not get knocked back by damage while he's still curled in the air, so the keys to getting the maximum height on a damage boost are

  1. timing the B press so that Link gets hit while he's at peak height, and
  2. only letting go of A once Link has reached peak height to control when he gets hit
