Shortcuts(taken from segasages.com): In Take It Easy, before the tunnel, you can avoid the big s-turn by going through the forest and jumping over the gap. In Pipeline Canyon, after the second jump, you should see a pipe going across the canyon. You can grind on that. In Freezing Point, before the big u-turn you can enter the forest on the left right before the blue fence. In Snow Ruins you can enter the shortcut by going between the two right pillars. In Dive into the cave, to the left of the second fork, you can go through a waterfall. You do this by jumping up onto the ledge before the first left turn. Also you can go to the right and grind up the ledge to get to it.
