How to Land Every Jump

A successful jump has three parts: approach speed, launch timing and landing angle.

Approach at Controlled Speed

You need enough horizontal momentum to reach the other side, but excess speed makes the landing difficult. Build speed before the ramp and avoid panicked inputs at the lip.

Jump Near the Ramp Edge

A late, clean jump preserves forward motion. Jumping too early wastes height and can leave the car short of the platform.

Level the Car in the Air

Watch the front and rear wheels. Use down gently when the nose is too high. The goal is to make both wheels meet the landing close together.

Absorb the Landing

After contact, avoid immediately holding jump again. Let the suspension settle, then accelerate toward the next obstacle.
