By the title some might already know what I'm talking about, but...
If you watch the way Ne0 ll iTzSh0oT (6th place on the map) does the beginning of the level, you'll notice how he gets his front wheel caught up on the wood platform to flip himself down. So while I'm sitting there going for a good time on the map and try that, my bike releases a bit late and my front tire was able to get on top of the pipes shooting fire out of them. Because that happened I started to think if someone was able to get up and over, all they would need to do is go fast until the end of the level and drop down for the final hill to climb before blowing up.
Some of you probably have already tried it, but just wanted to share this in case someone wants to try to get it to work.
Or maybe the devs placed an explosive up there just in case someone would do it. =)
Either way, it would be cool to know if it was possible.
EDIT: Okay, after playing around a little more I've found out how to do it if it is possible.
You'll need to wheelie off the start kind of like how the guy that I mentioned above did, but instead go ahead and lean a little further back so the first time your bike hits the wood platform, it hits it here: http://profile.imageshack.us/user/op...9/bikepict.jpg
It seems that if you do it right, the bike will glitch through the wood and give you a little extra bounce/flip, and possibly enough to get on top of the pipes. Might take a while to get it right, but if it's going to be done, I'm sure this is the way it will be done. Good luck to all who try it!

Im sure Redlynx have made it "impossibe" to take that way....
...just like the squirrel in YSNP![]()
or it could be an overlooked short cut that was taken out. we wont know until the DEVS speak up!

Nice find!
Managed to do this 3-4 times now but mostly by accident, i think it is possible to make it as i have gotten EXTREMELTY close.
You sorta do the thing that everyone does at the start but let go of your accelerator just b4 u hit the wooden bit and u shud sorta swing round it and the front of your bike glitches through the wood and sorta springs you up.
The shortcut saves around 20 seconds... but I doubt we will see anyone getting though it for some time...
haha that makes me want to get it even morehave you gotten it before sebbbi or is it even possible your just being sarcastic
