Notes:
- Before you begin, kill the first three Bombus or else they will severely hinder your vision as you climb the shaft.
- Perform a double bomb jump BSJ from the left-hand corner of the floor panel onto the thin metal column directly right of the spider ball track. Keep in mind that the window of time in which you are able to BSJ after leaving the ground is not long enough to do a "full" double bomb jump BSJ. You will want to lay the third bomb slightly early and unmorph immediately after it goes off. The "box" that you are jumping to is a bit higher than it looks, so make sure you are not wasting any height with your BSJ.
- From here, turn your view left toward the rightmost metal column on the opposite side of the shaft and jump down to the "box" one row below you. After you land, make sure that you orient yourself as close to the middle of the column as possible. The angle of the next jump needs to be very precise.
- Turn again to face the spider ball track. You will want align your crosshair on the very left edge of the track. Space jump forward, using your second jump just before making contact with the wall and hold up. You will either land directly or get "stuck" on the wall. In the latter case, carefully release the control stick and you should eventually land. From here, jump straight back and forward again, repeating until you reach the top.
