Desert Escape
Safe10'43
Safest strategy on this screen. Be sure to align with the right wall after hopping down to avoid any cacti. Dash to the right when you get to the top of the mouth of the octorok pattern in the ground of the desert area. File
Sandman Dash10'53
Slightly faster strategy than the safe one. Be sure to lift the rock and ledgehop in the correct way (see below). At the Sandman, slash and hold sword to the right and dash. File
Cactus Dash10'45
Again just a slightly faster strategy than the one before. Do the same rock lift and ledgehop as the Sandman strat and be sure not to move down any before starting to dash. This will make sure that you're on a good grid for hitting a 2 pixel window between the two cacti. This will require a frame perfect dash cancel and risks taking damage from the cacti if you miss, so this strat is not recommended for newer players. File
Good advice:
To be quite close after the jump down on the wall, there is a small trick. First lift the rock as you can see on the picture below and get in the right position. ( It does not have to be pixelperfect ). While you look down, start dashing and then move to the right.
If you did everything correctly, you should stand like on the first picture below.
If not done correctly: 
Fake Flippers
Flying tiles room
There are two options for this room.
Number 1
Dash to the left, lift the first pot, throw it against the switch and survive the flying tiles.
Number 2
Dash to the left, lift the first pot throw it against the switch and then get into the right position. Throw your boomerang diagonal against the switch and dash to the right ( Itemdash : Press Y and A at the same moment ). Note that both components of the diagonal input (< and v) must be on the same frame as the Y and A of the itemdash. Otherwise the trick will not work. Stop at the right position to be under the blue pegs and get invulnerability. This trick allows you to skip hitting the switch in the next room, saving a small amount of time.
Moon Pearl bomb jump
To get the Moon Pearl as early as possible we will use a bomb jump. You can use your sword for alignment as you can see on the first picture. Be as close as possible to the gap. Head to the left and start your dash shortly before the bomb changes his colors and explode and than dash into the wall. Dashing and bonking here will increase your pixel range from 2 to 6 pixel. The result is seen on the second picture. The bomb "boost" you now over the gap. If everything is done correctly, you pass the gap without falling down. Be sure to not activate one of the star formed switches on the floor.
If you need more information, you should read this description: Bomb jump
Bumper Room
Enter the room, move down and get yourself in a position to dash through above the blue bumper. You have a 4 pixel window (Y-axis, X-axis doesn't matter) to work with to get the dash successfully. To align yourself easier you can hold your sword out like in the picture below.
