Heh. I was just looking back at that old post you sent to me. Damn, you have eclipsed my abilities 10-fold. I'm going to have to practice some more.

One thing I have seen you do that I need to learn is the grapple-bungy thing where you sling shot yourself into the air over and over again. I can't quite get the timing down or something. I keep hitting the wall, taking damage, and not going anywhere.

I read your post on the disc jump with shield pack active. I'll have to consider that. I've used the shield pack to reduce damage from mines as I hit the flag, but I haven't tried the jump.

If you activate you shield and discjump off a mine you go FLYING. Just make sure you land on the far side of the mine. This works with mortars and tank/AS missiles as well.

To work on the grapple swing use a map like junk. Get on top of the beam holding the flag pipe. Try there. I'm demo myself doing it so you can see what is happening. One thing to remember when you go for big air with the grappler is that the winching action will break a grapple line if you are moving 130-140 everytime, when you are in light.

So instead of winching just fire. Now this is only suggested when you are moving faster than 130-140, up until then always winch as it helps you gain speed. I also suggest you use the shield pack all the time when capping as it helps you conserve energy and makes your skiing more effective.

So anyway I'll try to get the demo made tonight. I'll try to make it shorter than the skiing tutorial, which is actually very long (like 30 minutes, but I think it covers everything. This will be mainly swinging.)
