    The Refinery - +1sec timesaver



    The dropping blank has denied me from jumping directly from high air with backwheel bounce to otherside of the firepit.
    It hits drivers face everytime.

    Has anyone made it?

    No joke, I thought I'd have a go and literally did it first try. I couldn't complete the course though and have since only gotten close once. That is assuming you simply mean to clear the top platform and then back wheel bounce on the steel girder to clear the fire pit. If that's the shortcut you mean, then yes, I did it and it's possible.

    I checked a few of the top IOS scores, and they don't try that (16.845 being your time to beat), so it sounds interesting. they all do the usual flip-down from above to set it up.

    I'm currently 3rd on this track on iOS and I've been trying this for a while now before the thread came up and I can susscessfully make that jump but the momentum and speed from getting the perfect back wheel tap and flip on that platform is much better than skipping that section and back wheel tapping to make it across. IMO

    Nice to hear that it's possible, I even though that there is some DEAD zone in the air for a split second to deny driving too fast.

    Tell us when you have it done, so I don't have to check everyday you ghosts
