Don't get too excited. I thought this would add up to more timesave than this. Still, here's a hastily made comparison video.

The first strat to skip the double lure after IR has the potential to save mistakes in which you require another jump to properly lure the wollywogs. That said, this is a comparison at top speed and therefore the improvement is very low. On average this should save 1-2 seconds, so it's worth it. (Believe me, there is absolutely no need to lure the other wollywog, and zooming the camera in after the main one jumps is more than enough to avoid deaths).

The main timesave comes from 4 intentional yellow deaths, allowing you to reach the bridge sooner. This also kills the wollywog, saving just under a second. You must lose 2.5 seconds to withdraw the 4 yellows, however.

Not included in this video is some very slight timesave in ft. If you use 11 yellow and 89 blue, the menuing is easier and faster and you will save half a second. This is included in the "about 8 seconds" total.
