How to Sprint-Jump in Two-Block Tunnels While Wearing an Elytra

In vanilla Minecraft, rapidly pressing jump underneath a two-block-high ceiling is a standard movement trick to boost sprinting speed. Normally, wearing an elytra ruins this tactic because repeated jump inputs cause the wings to deploy at random moments, killing your momentum.

Setting Up Your Movement

With Elytra Bug Fix Mod active, you no longer need to open your inventory and swap back to a chestplate before entering tight corridors.

1. Open your inventory and place your elytra in the chest armor slot as usual.

2. Enter any enclosed corridor, mineshaft, or doorway that has a strict two-block clearance between the floor and the ceiling.

3. Begin sprinting forward using your standard movement and sprint keys.

4. Rapidly tap your jump key while moving beneath the low blocks.

What Changes in Practice

Instead of briefly entering the gliding posture and dragging along the ground, your character stays upright and continuously bounces off the ceiling blocks. You gain the full movement speed increase of two-block jump spamming while keeping your elytra ready for immediate use once you exit into an open area.

Keep an eye on your hunger bar while doing this over long distances, as vanilla sprint-jumping still drains saturation faster than normal running.
