SunRiptide
Bring true hold-and-release Riptide movement to your Paper server.
SunRiptide recreates the feel of vanilla Riptide while giving server owners a smoother, more flexible implementation. Instead of instantly launching the player on right-click, SunRiptide uses a proper hold, charge, and release system, making the ability feel much closer to Minecraft's native trident mechanics.
Simply equip a trident enchanted with Riptide, hold the use button to charge, aim where you want to go, and release.

Excellent Mobility
