Stunning an opponent by punching them in the opposite direction you want to go. If both are still then you will gain 1.1 speed in that direction. A  higher level of stun boosting is boosting off of an opponent's head and tapping the trigger as you let go to gain an additional 1.1 to 1.9 m/s on top of your 4 m/s boost.

'''Disk-popping / Headbutting'''
<br>
A technique where holding the disk in front of your face, letting go, pushing your head into the disk, then quickly grabbing it again would generate some extra speed above the 4.7 m/s cap. Doing this repeatedly allowed for faster movement or quick direction changes while holding the disk. This was patched out of Echo Arena after it became prevalent in public matches. It still exists in Lone Echo.
'''11.5 Launch'''
<br>
The intended maximum single-player launch speed out of the tunnels is 10 m/s, but if the catapult was released and regrabbed immediately after it started moving, it would result in a 11.5 m/s launch. This was patched out.
'''[[Pali-door]]'''
<br>
A hole in the geometry of the old lobby discovered by the player [[Palidore]]. The exit hole was honored with a plaque.
