Need help with Desert Skip...

I've been trying to pull the skip off using the ice rod during portal clipping, however when I finally get to the point where the ice gauge marker moves two slots ahead and I use the Tornado Rod, I simply go back to the beginning of the portal.

Now, on the video the player uses the rod twice and he does it successfully within the second time, does he move anywhere between the two uses of the Tornado rod?

Thanks beforehand.

You have to tap a direction on the circle pad (most people tap either left, top-left or bottom-left) at the same time as you press the Tornado Rod button in order to have Link clip through the ceiling and land on top of the wall.

Thanks a bunch :).
