General:
The current WR is very old (from Packattack�s first tape), but it�s
close to
maxed, at least with
this strat. This is one of the levels that can be frustrating because
of the
banana after the goal
(though nowhere as terrible as E34). I�ve finished faster a couple of
times,
but without the
banana.
I want a consistent finish!
There are 4 moving platforms. Go to the right and a bit up the first
platform (which moves to the
right). As it goes down again, move onto the second platform, which is
now
moving up to the
right. Repeat this process of staying on the right side all the time
and
finish low 20.
I want a good score!
A good score should be at least 5550. Though the "strat" for a standard
high
25 finish with 4
bananas might be slightly different from the WR strat, you often get
those
finishes when you try
for the WR. In fact, you get 5600s rather often too. Therefore I
suggest you
try for the record
and stop playing as soon as you�re satisfied with your score.
I want the record!
There are different ways to do the beginning. Packattack starts off a
bit
different on his vid, but
I�ll describe how I do it. Boost right (naturally), but only slightly,
about
3 tiles to the right. Go
left, then right, get the banana, left, then hold up-right, get the
banana
and hit the edge of the
3rd moving platform about 2 tiles away from the corner (you can�t
control
the exact spot
anyway). All those left and right movements at the start are pretty
slight,
only a couple of tiles
wide. Ideally - and this will fail often - you�ll fly up and forward,
then
hold up-left, bounce off the
3rd platform very close to the far corner, hit the edge of the 4th
platform.
Exactly in the same
moment you will pick up a banana and hopefully get hit straight ahead
into
the goal, getting the
post-goal banana.
