Zora's Fountain
Enter Jabu-Jabu Without a Fish
Newer Method
Discovered by Skater82297
- Z-Target the pillar to the right so that Link is touching the railing.
- Hold R and press B twice to crouch stab recoil off the pillar twice, putting you into position.
- Sidehop left then quickly mash B to jump attack.
The sword should hit the pillar on the opposite side of the railing, causing you to recoil back into the Jabu-Jabu loading zone. However, if Link does not jumpslash quickly enough it can be a long swim back to setup again. Because of this the next method is still commonly used.
Classic Method
Discovered by AKA
- Climb onto the rail to the right of Jabu Jabu's mouth
- Face the side of Jabu Jabu's mouth, lining up the B button with the second green triangle from the left
- Jump off and then perform a jump slash to get as much height as possible
- Timed correctly, you will hit the loading zone for the dungeon.
It is possible to jump too high, in which case you need to slide down a little bit and do another jumpslash to hit the loading zone. Getting to know exactly where to aim for requires a small amount of practice.
It should be noted that both of the above techniques can also be performed from the left side of Jabu-Jabu's head.
