Half Pipe Physics

Something is up with the movement on the half pipes..... cause every time i go up and jump to get more momentum, something is slowing me down. I don't know if its suppose to slow me down as soon as i ollie, but its annoying and honestly don't think i should be slowing down as i ollie going up the half pipes. Like its the same height every... single... TIME! And i want to go HIGHER! Tell me im not the only one... please.....

  • Try using the left stick up to pump setting, for me keeping momentum is making sure i pump on the way up and back down.

    Bigger the half pipe the easier it is.

    I am! But it still doesn't feel like I'm getting the right height.... I pump as I'm going down almost every time! But it never gives the speed or momentum I ask for. Idk what it is but I'm not satisfied. If it all makes sense.

    Pumping works slightly differently in new Skate. Instead of pumping back and forth and going up and down the half-pipe, pump the half-pipe by riding across it and hitting multiple pumps. Once you get your speed up by doing that, it will usually be much easier to keep your speed up.
