Deluxe Ski Jump Forum

Dear fellow jumpers!

I have been playing this game for some time, and my technique has been improving, however I am still not close to the lengths that the best jumpers manage.
I have been looking at some replays of the record jumps and noticed that just after take-off it seems that the jumper's body will move up and down for a second or two, and it looks like he gains some extra height due to this. My jumper does not have the same motion...is there something I am doing wrong? Or this some kind of "cheat" that I do not know about?

This really bugs me, so any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks a lot in advance!

It's kinda stupid movement which requires a lot practise and very exact mouse sensitivity settings but you can do good lengths without that also. Look at jumps by Winczaszek or Sliwinski for example, they don't have this.
