Player's comment:
I messed up getting the last flag, but at least I finished. I hate the finish flag on this level. I had my tire fly right through the finish flag so many times, it is sick. I'm looking forward to the 'halo' around the flags showing where you have to touch.

Look how effective this ending is. You just need to make sure you land right at the top of the crest after the tree and smooth-ride the downhill slope. This allows for a cleaner swipe of the last red flag rather than bouncing your way up to it. It's very challenging to get just right, but if done correctly, it shaves off a bit of time. I was about 2 bike lengths behind PMD and jumped out in front very quickly
I knew one of the keys to a good time here is getting that last flag. I like your technique. I also like your wheelie going up that last hill. That spares you from the agony of flying through the finish. To do that wheelie though, you have to be positioned right or else you will easily flip over.
I have played Malysz 11,017 times and completed it 363 times. This is the best wheelie finish I have ever managed it all my completions. It's very rare to do it perfectly. It's a shame for me that the first half of this run wasn't better.
