slide jump reverse hop question

[<:)]

I just got the slide jump and realised you can chain it into a backwards high jump. Sometimes this shows a blue after image and sometimes yellow. Is blue stronger than yellow? Also is it based solely on timing?

These are called ultra hops, and they can actually be done in any direction. There’s a version with just Slide, and a version with Slide + Solar Wind.

Basically it’s based on speed, but can reach high speed with the right timing.

Yellow is a perfect ultra meaning you get the max height from a single hop. Blue is an ultra without perfect speed/height.

However, ultras are capped on speed/height until you get Solar Wind/long jump. So you can’t get yellow ultras without it, unless you play on the pre-map build which did not have the speed cap or blue after image.

You can also bunnyhop from a slide jump, which is nice for covering a lot of distance, even if it only really works on flat ground.

You can also bunny hop from sliding off of ledges.
