When your car is going to hit the ground, hold powerslide.
- Just do it.
- Every time you land in a jerking stop that arrests your momentum and makes you recover, it is completely unnecessary.
- Seriously just hold powerslide when your car is near the ground.
- If you landed, are holding powerslide, and you aren’t pointing in the direction you want to move, then just keep holding powerslide, turn your wheels, and let your car spin until it is.
- Once your nose is pointing in the direction of your momentum, let go of powerslide.
- If you want to be really fancy and look like a pro, use a flip to reorient yourself and add even more momentum.
- Just make sure if you do that that you’re holding powerslide when you land the second time.
- Practice powerslide all the time, in freeplay, in games, in the dead time after a goal, etc. Being uncomfortable with powerslide is like being uncomfortable with the jump button. It is a core, basic control, you really want to be using it.
