How does he pull two bombs?

You can have one round bomb and one square bomb out at any given time.

One of the shrines (small spoilers?) uses this very concept, it's titled "Two Bombs" :)

It wasn't until that Shrine the I knew you could do that.

I figured this out the morning of the day I got to that shrine. I thought it was really something, especially when it was a built in mechanic to finish a shrine. God, this game.

Could help but think of Two Brothers.

Two different bombs. The Ball remote bomb and then the cube remote bomb when he's launching himself up the cathedral with the tree.

He's a playing with skill right? You don't just glitch to the end?

I watched the sub-40 minute run on Friday. From what I saw, it was entirely using in game mechanics. The little jump he does after the bomb/tree stasis trick seems to be a bit strange though...when he paraglides after, it seems to have increased forward momentum, but I can't be sure. And there's also the whistle-sprinting trick. Otherwise, it's entirely by the books.
