The '''Grip Grab''' is an ability learned in [[Mayahem Temple]] from [[Jamjars]] and is required to move on from the [[Wooded Hollow]] to the [[Plateau]]. When [[Banjo]] jumps toward a ledge, he can grab onto it and either climb up by pressing {{A}}, drop down by pressing {{Z}}, or climb along the side. Grip Grabbing can be useful for getting on to just-too-tall platforms and moving along thin platforms that are difficult to walk across, but its main use is moving along ledges that are inset in walls.

The '''Grip Grab''' is a move in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''.


[[Snapdragon]]s often make their nests around Grip Grab ledges and will snap at Banjo as he passes near. If [[Kazooie]] is accompanying Banjo, pressing {{B}} while on a ledge will allow her to peck the enemies. Still, even without Kazooie, the Snapdragon's snapping pattern is predictable and can be avoided with good timing.

Jamjars, Banjo-Tooie

Overview[edit]
