Ladder Clipping

I'm new to speedrunning LoZ and I am having trouble ladder clipping. How do you do it, is there a specific input or direction? Any help is appreciated!

The same as block clipping and screen scrolling, you must do a 1 frame tap in a direction perpendicular to your facing. Unlike block clipping, however, you cannot buffer this tap with a sword or other item.

Do I have to be on a certain pixel on the ladder just like block clipping?

Yes, you do. Unfortunately don't have an image showing the pixels handy and I don't see one on redcandle.us.

This graphic shows the correct ladder pixel. The top of Link's hat should split the top rung of the ladder, hiding the dark brown and leaving the light brown exposed.

I didn't think to look in the screen scroll section >_<
