Ski Jump
I'm working on getting all 536 plats. I've got two to go, and one of them is the skill game "Ski Jump."
What am I missing about this skill game? It seems to be random, but no matter how many dozens of times I try it, I can't get past
150m. Is there some secret, or some technique that I'm supposed to be shooting for, or do I have to just get lucky?

Re: Ski Jump
There are many things to get right in the ski jump in order to fly further. First of all you must try to get all the speed you can from the short ramp. The best way to do that is to reduce any extra drag and friction; that is, trying to do a wheelie all the way. Secondly, try to perform kind of a whiplash motion in the end of the ramp by quickly leaning forward so that the front wheel drops off the ramp thus giving the rider some extra momentum when bailing out (hard to really explain). Thirdly, you must simply get the angle of the bailout right. And of course there's the matter of keeping the left stick/dpad/whatever pointing in the top right corner whilst flying.
It can take time, I remember using a whole day on HD to get to 200m but I reached only 199.
