    I'm hoping someone can explain to me why the Trip and Fall trick works great sometimes but not all the time? I know you need at least 3 blocks to trip and fall. I've read that you tap the last block just before B gets there plus I've also read double tap when B gets there. Only the first method works for me if it's going to work at all. Any ideas for a better success rate?

    Hi @gmacpro! The Tripping on Air trick is usually unreliable and hated, but there's a way to make it more consistent. Just put a half pillar or stair at the end of the path (where you tap again), and you should be able to have a 90-100% success rate. And yes, you're just supposed to tap the last block before B gets there. I don't think that double tapping works.

    But I don't recommend using this trick in a level, in case you're planning to, even with the stable version. Hope this helped! :)

    @Frenzies - Thanks for the reply. I'm not planning on using it in my level but it seams like many others use it. For example, in Ricko's Crossed Paths, do you not need it to fall onto the stone wedge to step to the next level? I'll go back and forth 20 times and then finally, B falls while other times, the first try works. I will try your suggestion to see if that helps me ref the pillar. So to clarify, tap the last block BEFORE B steps on it or AS B steps on it?

    Thanks

    Probably as B steps on it.

    Advices to perform tripping on air:
    - B must face the gap. If he has to rotate the trick won't work.
    - B must be almost still. If his arms and body are moving because of a previous move, the trick won't work.
    - Tap on the last block when B is exactly between the two last blocks.
    - It is possible to perform the trick with only two blocks but it is very difficult.

    I was just testing your reply and I was able to get B to fall if B wasn't looking in the correct direction. It's really strange, one time when you run the level, B can't fail as B falls over and over but on the next run of the level, B will not fall, still, facing correctly. Anyway, thanks for the reply, I'll use it as part of the growing knowledge I'm gaining.

    ToA is a one of the main tricks that we used mostly...
    We use this trick in many different step...
    One of them is simple ToA.
    Many people said this trick easy to do..However, I couldn't do it:(.
    Example:
    - @Frince-short course V Screenshot_20190327-101719.png

    I have played this but I not done yet because stucked at the beggining and it use simple ToA..
    How did you guys make it easily?:confused:
    Simple ToA is the hardest trick to do( in my opinion).
    Could someone tell me the specific step to do this trick?:rolleyes:

    Just it, hope you could tell me..:oops:
