how about just doing something like this.
remove the bombs and close the pointless left side.
this is the 1:14 route, yes?

chandler; simplified

Looks good, Vega.

Its difficult to explain how I cut off 3 seconds without seeing the comparison between our 2 videos, but I expect its purely the method that I use to jump the mines (hard brake before the small hump, flip counterclockwise holding brake, compress on back tire and release to get extra acceleration)

You first described doing it by rolling over the small hump and stretching, then accelerating up the hill, which I believe would be slower overall.

On a more related note, that version of chandler looks good.

Vega, I tried your recommendation and couldn't do it - 38:28. The new version looks great. Nice work. PMD, does it work for you?

Kenn, I don't do a flip, but I improved my turn around at the bottom of the slope.

Pulled it off with 36:96, could go lower but I was on a poor run when I pulled off a little extra trick: I didn't even touch the wall to the left of the flag, I came off that last jump high enough to flip and barely touch the flag with my back wheel.

I love this kind of competition even without a new levelpack.

My current best is 36:86, without going directly to the flag (I've been close).

I really like the version that Vega posted, but maybe we could also have a version that is as PMD designed it. It would allow everyone to complete the level in the standard way (to pass it), but the fast route would be over the bombs.

I don't like the idea of having 2 versions of the same level in the pack, I think this mini-competition will have to end once the edit comes up. I'll probably just yield to you, because during my downtime since I got 36:96 I've found some motivation to play Steps more and possibly land it smooth and snag gold there.

Sounds like good logic about not having 2 versions - I'm just really enjoying this level.

I also like your idea about yielding it to me . Good luck on steps!

As for Chandler, I cut off nearly a second by going straight to the flag. Time to beat is now 35:88

When I was using a Palm device, I knew how (thanks to Kris) to upload a video of a level that wasn't in the HoF. I couldn't find a quick and easy way to do this on the iPhone, so I simply videoed my iPhone using my wife's.

Here is a link to my fastest run on Chandler: http://youtu.be/X_DGqvuWsV0

I learned that you don't need to do anything more than turn around at the bottom of the slope. This method, however, requires you to be a bit more careful over the bombs since you won't have as much air.
