Stuck on 2nd last obstacle on the wreck, please help! | Forums

[shamusmon]

I know I'm a real noob but I just cant get over the 2nd last obstacle on the wreck where there Is a box attached to the top of a train part, I think you have to bunny hop but it seems too steep. Please can you tell me the technique to get over and I have already checked out replays.
Generally I'm okay at trials and I have completed every extreme track and didn't find them that hard ( certainly a lot easier than HD) except this one just because of this one obstacle!

Ive found that its about foward momentum...when you hit that slope the bounce from hitting it will give you the lift you need to get over it....at least that worked for me

Start at the bottom and acclerate while pushing forward then bounce back tire first push forward to slam your front tire then pull back then tap it right so you lift your back in the air too then push forward as soon as your tires are on the box. Easy as pie!

I lean forward at the checkpoint, roll back to give the most run up then gun it up the ramp, when my wheels hit the lower section with the barrel at the bottom I do a hop and it seems to get me up no problem.

I've tried it with out the run up, trying to do it quick but I always bail. Feels like the speed and where it hits are just right for the hop.

Hope it helps and you get it.

At the checkpoint back up all the way to the edge of the platform you are on. Gun it from there while still leaning forward. When you are in the air position your bike so that you land with the front tire BARELY touching before the rear tire. As you are landing do a quick bunny hop. The momentum from the speed and "spring" from the way you land should be enough to get you over. Hope that helps a little. I remember thinking it wasn't possible, but keep at it. You'll get it.

Thanks for all the great advice I'm going to try it again with my new found knowledge.
