The dash to the bridge may be done in one of two ways. If you fully scan the door first as Sparky did in his vid, the dash is similar to a [["Kip Dash"]], and is performed by simultaneously holding L to scan, briefly jabbing B to jump, and slamming the stick left as fast as possible. Immediately after this initial combination, you should also hold R. The scan will freeze the screen, at which point you should let go of the control stick so it returns to centre, and continue to hold R and L. Now release L to unfreeze the screen, and immediately hold it again. Keep L and R held for the duration of the jump, and then just tap B at an appropriate moment for the space jump. It is tight, but you should be able to make it onto the bridge.

The dash is also possible another way, for which you should start with the door unscanned. The technique is very similar, except without the screen freeze. Simultaneously hold L to scan, jab B to jump, and slam the stick left. As soon as you begin to dash, hold R, and then keep L and R held for the duration of the jump, again tapping B when necessary to get the space jump. The main difference between this and the previous technique is that here you should keep the stick held left for the entire process, whereas before it was necessary to centre it after the screen freeze.

In my opinion this second way is better, firstly because it's less complicated to execute, and secondly because you waste no time scanning the door.

This trick lets you go directly from Great Bridge to Torvus Temple, without going through most of upper Torvus.

First, line up next to the translator door, facing the way you came in. There is a slight bump in the floor that you have to ghetto off of. Run forward, and ghetto off the bump into the slant on the wall, then back onto the door.

From here, perform a dash (using the translator door as a scan) over to the bridge.
