The Approach
At the start of the approach phase you will be faced with the daunting view of the approach ramp in the distance, from this moment on you have one minute in which to complete your jump as indicated on the left hand dial of the control panel or else to be disqualified from the competition.
Accelerate through the gears paying special attention to keep aiming for the centre of the ramp, as on the higher levels you will be pushed off course by the ever increasing side wind. Missing the ramp will cause you to crash into the side of the buses.
At this time leaning forward will lessen the wind resistance on the bike and allow you to attain a higher speed on your approach which in turn will give you greater distance and height. Leaning back will cause a wheely and increase the drag, hence causing you to lose speed.
In the Air
After completing the approach the screen will switch to a side view of the bike and buses in time to see your ascent of the ramp. As near to the top of the ramp as possible, leaning back will give you extra impetus on your launch and allow you to obtain even greater height and distance. If your timing is correct the border will flash white.
After leaving the ramp leaning backwards or forwards will alter the attitude of the bike in the air and so determine a sate landing.
Landing
Skill is now needed as landing too heavily or a too great an angel will cause you to crash and for the budding professionals who can manage to land on the down ramp, a 1000 point bonus will be awarded if not an otherwise successful landing will be awarded with 100 points for every bus cleared.
Entry level can be selected at the beginning of the game using the options menu and the game can be aborted by using the ESC key at the beginning of the approach phase at any level.

A = lean back

"Oh boy, to me this is trial & error, get the right speed up & land & I still blow up - what gives? Yes, it`s one of those games, use your motorbike, jump the buses & HFTB. DJL should have included an infinite Parachute or net or pillows at the end to stop this from being released. Nice scrolling!!!"
