The hamster has to be nearly parallel to the ground when it hits for the skateboard to work; upon hitting the ground, the hamster will use the skateboard to slide a few extra feet. Hope there's a springboard ahead of you.

Grr.. If I had gotten another couple hundred-somethings...

Oh, and now I'm second overall (and third for a single flight).

My single hamster record has been beaten several times. But I still hold the s2k cumulative record. And I'm the only one to get two 300ft flights in one run.

Anyone care to shut me up, already? :ggreen:

DARN! ****! I hate you! I got 975 points, but my last flight was only 47 feet!

Ok, I don't hate you, but..

That's happened to me before, it tends to happen when you're at too steep an angle. It looks like a glitch.

Aww, I just got 999.

1 foot from the 1000 foot club. Ugh...

Still, set two personal records, 390ft 1 hamster, and 999 total flight.

No records here though
