Stilt Stride

The Stilt Stride is learned from Bottles in Bubblegloop Swamp just behind the world's exit pad.

This ability is activated simply by touching a pair of green Wading Boots and it allows Kazooie to wade through hazardous terrain like piranha-infested waters and superheated sand while she carries Banjo around on her back, similar to the Talon Trot. The ability can only be used for a limited time but can also be canceled prematurely by standing still and pressing. The music played is a different version of the pause menu theme.

Banjo cannot use the Stilt Stride on his own (likely because the Wading Boots were designed for thinner legs), so he has to rely on the Sack Pack to cross hazardous terrains.
