Ender or the Jap do NOT hop before the trick.

The BCWii and TF jumps aren't completely compareable since they are both on a different angle of an incline. Yes, you can "low jump" both, you just got to find out when to hop on the end of the rWS ramp to get that same effect since it's at a different angle.

It's not the same Fried, like Nick said.  If you press R at a certain point you can fall slightly shorter than without it, just like Aubrey's 1st jump on KC.

He doesn't press R on KC, he just tricks slightly later then normal.

rWS flap: Shroom up the end of the halfpipe to go around that turn and get a boost on the hills :3


Tim tried it, and I tried it...

Tim doesn't think it's faster iirc, and my rWS flap fails, so anything coming from my mouth wouldn't constitute fact  Tongue

Prez is telling the truth ... I asked Aubrey for help on this course and he told me to delay the trick on the first ramp, not to low hop it ... as he does himself.

It doesn't matter, they both do the same thing anyway.

The zipper on the first jump in KC is too close to the edge, so I don't think you'd have enough time to accelerate if you did the hop.  In WS, on the other hand, the zipper is farther away from the edge.

-_________________________________-

Your thinking of what a "low hop" is is when you jump and clip the top edge which means your trick will be lower.  On WS if you press R then you won't come off the ground and so this type of low hop isn't possible.  However, if you can work out the timing of where to press R, you can stay lower in the air.

Why do you people always argue about WRs and strats? I mean, competitive sites are mainly done for one thing... which is meeting new friends who share your same hobby, not arguing all the time about some stupid records that nobody outside this game will barely remember. Time Trialing is a form of improving ourselves time by time, pushing our limits to points we could never imagine we would have got, not flame all the time with other stupid kids whose main purpose in life is getting fat at mcdonalds... ffs mkw kiddies

I know 3 faster things for DKS, all of which are too hard to do consistently:
Aim to go into the far left side of the cannon, then try to get a miniturbo and wheelie around the turn.
Right after that turn, low trick off the first hill thing and then low trick off the second also.
On the part with the bumps, get 4-6 tricks like I did in my 36.049 flap.

The course is already hard enough to do consistently, so these are probably only worth doing if you're behind quite a bit or maybe on the first lap.

Edit: Actually, the second thing I mentioned, the double low trick, isn't too difficult...  There might be at least one double trick in the next WR...  Roll Eyes

Wouldn't doing a trick right after the cannon be faster (like the trick at the final turn) ?

^ it doesn't take you as close to the edge as at the end, plus you get too much air time for how far you will be going if you tricked.

maybe it is faster to do a trick off the first pillar in Dry Dry Ruins on the final lap right before the hill jump thing.  It is possible to do a trick on that with little air time and you can still hold the drift so you have the mini turbo to jump the hill.
