Pump and Dump needs tweaking

You guys seriously need to give a little more leeway on how we collect these speedline bearings.  I 'm doing so much fast turning I can't even see the bearings half the time to figure out where it is.  Not too mention getting thrown around or pulled into coping grinds that keeps me that one foot away from registering the collection.

    I'm sure they did, they had blue checkpoints that you had to skate through in order to keep going. Deathraces for sure had them. 

  • They need to do away with the bearings. I've been seeing the same tired design in games for years. The older Skates didn't have hoops or random items you needed to collect along the line and it worked fine.

    It can also be helpful to slow down more than you think, depending on the speedline challenge. Instead of focusing on being fast, I find it much more helpful to focus on being smooth. If you're smooth, you'll wind up being faster than you think and have more consistent runs.

    I just went and did the challenge myself again and completed it in the allotted time with all objectives in 67 seconds, on my first go. There is enough time to complete it, you have to learn the track because the Stadium's two tracks are some of the hardest areas to session in the game. 

    If you're having a rough time, quit the challenge, run the track and learn how fast you can/can't go, learn which sections are spines, which are a QP, and which are rollers. This challenge will almost certainly appear again in the game's lifespan and I truly believe you can comfortably complete this challenge in the same time I did
