Here's a brief compilation of "fake skips" in the game 140, i.e. tricks that look like a skip, but essentially aren't one, as you 'd have to wait for a cycle to finish first anyway. Don't bother practicing these, except for swag.


0:06 - This one looks incredibly cool, but is punishingly hard for absolutely nothing. While you can jump across the obstacle a bit earlier, there is no way you'll reach the next jump in the cycle you'd need.

0:16 - A popular one. Rolling down here in one go is not too hard, but if you are just a little too slow or a little too fast even, this is a certain death. As you'd have to wait one cycle for the elevator anyway, this swag is not recommended.

0:28 - Probably the coolest, but extremely hard, as it requires absolute precise timing. Jeppe Carlsen, the devloper, suggested this could be possible - and it really is! However, you just have to wait downstairs a bit longer, so just a waste of nerves. But some good swag.

0:40 - Here you see, that you can roll through the four gates in one go. But you don't have to, since there is no way you can get pulled up in the next cycle. Take your time and save your nerves here.

0:59 - Here, you can wait a bit, to perform this maneuver. However, as "wait a bit" implies, you can simply roll down and let yourself pushed up by the trampoline ground, it will have the same effect.

I hope that helps new runners, focus on the important stuff.
