Poolside Pad bonus objective help

I've been playing this game by myself and I can't figure out how to only hold the boxes for three seconds. Is this just impossible in 1p?

I haven't done single player but with a partner we got this achievement by dropping the boxes and then picking them up again. You can also kick the boxes when possible instead of picking them up

Indeed. As far as I know it is literally just "Press the grab button for less than three seconds at a time when moving boxes", there shouldn't be anything about singleplayer or multiplayer that affects that?

Thank you both! I was having such a hard time I couldn't tell if it was me counting wrong or if there was no reset when you put the box down.

Necroing this thread to let future players know that: yes, those red fragile boxes count as boxes. and you can actually drop them without smashing them if you don't have too much momentum.

I kept scratching my head not knowing when or why I failed in single player, thinking that the "3 second" counts every single box held duration cumulatively and that's why I fail, when this thread implies dropping resets it. It turns out that my d*mb*ss just kept holding fragile boxes all the way to the truck and that's how I keep failing.

so yeah I have now confirmed dropping does indeed reset the 3 second timer.
