Laser does very well here to keep contact with the ground (mostly) and continuous drive, after collecting the tail flag. The thing about the 'Hoick' move is that you always get an optimum drive on the way back (from a slower start - admittedly), and it gives you a decent head start.

Laser is just gaining on me a liiittle bit, before the final move (which he does about as well as poss), but it's not enough.

The Hoick can be done better, but Laser has pretty much maxed out the standard ending - imho.

As to your view that a high 33 is poss, Vega... Hmmm. I was pretty shocked to watch this and see Laser level with me at the end of the tail. I get a (deliberate) push off the last 'rib', and there is no braking done at all before hitting the step halfway along the tail. Not much to be gained there - seems to me. Maybe poss to go into the Hoick really fast, and get a big stretch and return, and the same at the finish, so - maybe possible. I'm not going to do it though - over to you buddy?..

Procrastination - working hard at avoiding effort...

Finally - Laser really pushes the ending to the max(ish). that ending on my run would get you about halfway to your prediction, Vega.

Go on - you know you want to..

Finally finally. Not to forget - there are 2 runs between mine and Lasers!

Given Kristophers comment, I would guess that his at least is a hoick run..

G'night.

Yah 33.xx is possible here... all it would take is to avoid boinking your rear tire on the point of the cliff at 24.xx combined with a Laser push at the end and 33.xx is in the bag.

Yah so as for your "over to you buddy" pass of the baton... you can rest easy brother. I have never played these levels and don't even have the pack downloaded onto my Palm Treo.

Perhaps if I get a new Apple toy I can play some of the other levelpacks someday.

Hey you already had 54 golds before posting this new one. Why still 54 golds? Someone swipe one from you recently??
Vega

um. right.

perhaps I should practice toward a higher level of observance.

I had assumed (without looking at the submission date of your run) that you submitted this today based on all the fresh commenting.

at any rate... still... good job on swiping one of mike's longstanding golds

Sorry to waste your time Vega - but that is quite funny.. Very funny, actually...

Yes - a lot of blabbering and not much playing coming from me, atm. Hence my procrastination comment..

I'll knuckle down to it again soon.

Do get yourself an iPod 3rd gen. Ideal tool, and cheap as chips on eBay now ( not that that is of major concern to a corporate dynamo like yourself, I imagine ). A bit of a learning curve, but certainly a revelation in controllability, especially (in my case) after a T3 with a broken away from the PCB board button contact, which moved around and made accurate timing impossible (I thought it was just me - not good for a musicians confidence ). Didn't find out until I opened it up to fit a new battery. I'd given up BOD by then, thinking I was just not very good.

And now - Look at me Ma! I'm on top of the world!!! BOOM!!!

I want to avoid that particular ending, though.

I would say name that film, but prob way too easy.

Very very, VERY funny - the more I think about it.

Glad I'm not paying for that time of yours... ...


Good for the soul - fun like that.

lol. You're too easy AA. Actually, to be technical, all of my comments on this are still quite relevant and apropos (just a wee bit tardy, that's all )
