- 1). Select Donkey as your playable character during gameplay.
- 2). Press the "A" button to jump; however, instead of letting go and falling down, hold the "A" button down and you will begin to hover.
- 3). Use the directional pad to navigate to where you would like to land. You can either allow the hover to end itself, or you can release the "A" button to drop down.
