The Mockball is a technique designed to preserve running speed while rolling along the ground before you acquire the Speed Booster. In this case, you are using it to bypass a set of falling gates to get access to a Super Missile Tank in the ceiling past the gates. There are also three Missile Tanks and a Reserve Tank in this area.

To do it, spin jump and hold the buttons. Press Down once in midair, then down again just as you hit the ground while transitioning to holding Forward. If Samus bounces a bit, you pressed Down the second time too early. If done correctly, you will roll forward at your dashing speed, which will get you past the collapsing floors and gates.
