But the second time? Then it's all about speed. The final journey through the level changes things, forcing you to go back from the end of the level to the beginning. Since this is one of the biggest levels in the game, you might need some help finding all of the cunningly hidden cat pieces or Bowser blocks.

Slipskate Slope 100% Completion Guide | All the cat shines and the cat parts
Cat Piece # 1: Take the Power-Up Skateboard in the first area and beat the large stack of Goombas to get your coin.
Cat Piece # 2: After the peak slide you will find a ramp with a speed increase. Use a skate shoe to exit the ramp and jump to reach this room.
Cat Piece # 3: In the obstacle area with revolving floors and wall spikes, there is a coin on the left side.
Cat Piece # 4: From the big obstacle of the spinning cylinder, you need the skate shoe to descend from the top rim and land on the second cylinder. The room is upstairs, on the other side.
Cat Piece # 5: Through the second cylinder with rotating floors, there is a ramp that propels you towards the lighthouse. Use a skate and jump to reach it from this ramp!
Chat Shine # 1: Collect the 5 cat coins to earn this shard.
Chat Shine # 2: Reach the end of the level to collect this shard near the lighthouse.
Chat Shine # 3: This hard-to-find Bowser Block shard is at the very end of the level. Jump to the Giga Bell location from the lighthouse, then turn around.
Chat Shine # 4: Complete the level once, then come back to the entrance later to find the P-Switch to activate a Blue Coin challenge. Use the skate shoe and take it easy! Do not hold [AND] accelerate. Just go at normal slow speed for more control. You should focus on collecting the coins and not missing them - going fast and missing the coins is worse than going slow and getting them all.
Chat Shine # 5: For your third visit, a cage will appear at the start of the level. The key is located at the very end near the lighthouse - the trick is to go back to the beginning. From the lighthouse, use the correct path to go back and use the blocks to jump. Continue to the start of the level, using the blocks under each ramp to climb higher. At the first ramp, jump over the stone ledges to the left / right to avoid the spikes. Then you are at home for free!
