    Gives you a slight boost and makes you go further, and if you do this many times in one run it can make it quite a lot faster.

    Hmm .. somehow when Redlynx introduced FMX I was expecting this from the get go. My reasoning was that the FMX rider stances could be used to clear gaps in new and interesting ways. Honestly I am pretty curious to see how much faster one can be, am I the only one?

    I don't consider this a glitch but moreover an unwanted feature. I am surprised that RedLynx never caught this. They need more hardcore players in their test team and definitely remove the possibility in non FMX tracks .. It's a pity though, I was waiting for those top runs where riders are pulling of gimmicky FMX tricks just to show off.

    I hope every run that uses FMX gets deleted, because anybody who abuses it is a scrub.

    Unfortunately there are runs where people do it for flair, or even on accident; but removing all runs with FMX, then removing FMX ability in Trials mode is the safest option.

    am I the only one who doesn't have a problem with this? they added fmx for a reason. and people found a way to use it to their advantage in speed running tracks. this isn't Evo/HD. it's a NEW game, with NEW features. which we should be able to use. I don't see it as an "exploit". everyone can do it so it's not like anyone has an advantage over anyone else. really, what is the big deal? I think a full leaderboard wipe is extreme. and yeah i used it, not even ashamed. i think everyone is over reacting TBH.

    Everyone can do it but not everyone wants to lower the integrity of the game, or themselves in the process.

    FMX exploiting mid-air momentum boost =/= actual trials speedrunning.

    Yeah im guilty of using it on the very first beginner track just to f*** around, but i hope RL removes all those runs and lock it to Foxbat only so that way people can still use it on any tracks they choose, they just wont have an advantage over the Roach/Viper speed-wise.

    When you compete for global ranking, nothing is more essential than a clean leaderboard.

    I enjoy the game the way it is tbh but i'm with you if it's just removing tricked runs only if it has to come to that. i'm against a full leaderboard wipe though. that's too much. I just really think they have bigger, more persistent problems that they should be trying to fix ie tire glitches. there are so many it's not even funny anymore.
