How to unlock the Faster Than Sound achievement in Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time - Definitive Guide

After beating the game, the triple spin ability for Crash will open, performed with the following combination: wait half a second wait half a second
That is, you can’t just spam the square, otherwise it won’t work. Triple spin gives additional speed to movement; it can and should also be used during a jump. But you can speedrun from the very beginning of the game, using an analogue of triple torsion, with a combination / +

PowerPyx's playlist of all 38 Platinum Relics
5 boss levels and inverted levels do not require relics.

But there is an additional option: aim for a higher relic level. Don't be alarmed, this will only help you.
Video guide of relics from the developers of Toys for Bob
This video guide presents the passage of all levels on relics from the developers called "Toys for Bob". These are the highest relics. Yes, you only need platinum relics, but if you don’t have enough time using a video guide on platinum relics (that is, you make a lot of mistakes), it will be much more useful to try to speedrun the most difficult relic, extracting valuable shortcuts and other tricks for relics from developers. You don't have to complete the entire level like this, but the more shortcuts and complex tricks you can use, the more time you'll have for the Platinum Relic. This way you can save time and, most importantly, make mistakes in some places.

Unlike the trilogy, where you needed gold relics for the trophy, in part 4 you need platinum relics, which makes the trophy more difficult. Also, the levels have become much longer, and the game itself is more difficult, so here are a couple of tips:
1) Divide the level into parts. Don't try to complete the entire level at once. What is the main thing in speedruns? Fasten. (c) Karmik Koala. Divide the level into parts and consolidate its passage by training for the best time, dying over and over again and building muscle memory. As soon as you get the hang of it, move on to the next part of the level, already securing 2 parts and so on until victory.
2) If the ghost of a bot bothers you, you can turn it off in the game settings
3) Alternate slide with double and single twist (spin). Slide + double spin is faster than just triple spin. Slide is a combination / + When you watch speedruns on relics from the developers, you will see that mostly players use the slide, and not the triple spin, or use it in combination with a double/single spin. Accordingly, the best options would be the following combinations: slide + spin + spin (double spin), or simply slide + spin. The peculiarity of the slide, in addition to its increased speed, is that it can slide through the air, which is faster than just jumping over an abyss. But naturally, it is more difficult to use a slide combination with a double/single spin than a triple spin. Your fingers will hurt . In general, practice. If you learn, you will save a lot of time

And one more important tip : at the very end of any level, do not forget to hit the green metal box with an exclamation mark. This way you can reduce the total time , depending on the number of unbroken time boxes located within the radius of the nitro explosion. Accordingly, you don’t have to try to knock down temporary boxes next to nitro during the race

RintarouRenat, Time boxes actually reduce the total time - at the very end of the level, I clarified that. Did you write this without checking? Then nonsense and misleading players are coming from your side.

For example, before the finish line, you smashed boxes for 5 seconds. Time stopped. But only 1 second has passed and you have already completed the level, 4 seconds do not burn, but reduce the final time.
Here are the proofs

After beating the game you will be given a triple spin which speeds up the crash, then go to the settings and change the controls:
1. Make the masks work on L2
2. Set the torsion to R2
This will make it much easier to speed up the crash and switch to masks, since the square button is not convenient to constantly press and jump.

Names of levels and the required time indicator for them. In almost half of the levels I immediately knocked out platinum, so it will say “my time” and will differ from what is necessary, but this will only be beneficial - more concentration. The first time is time for the platinum relic, the second time is for the Toys for Bob relic
