I forgot the controls of all the games. :( Enter, space, arrow keys? What to use when?

[Napostriouf]

@HellPet I was playing with game pad! ^_^ By the way, most of time, when you play with keyboard at this, it use arrow and spacebar.

[Antimensch]

in fact it was or still is a great game - I ever wondered how to have a save landing at ski jumping beyond 97,5 meters.

can someone help me, or is it a commonly known bug?

because in the world class tournament the leading computer opponents have something like 112 meters etc. - I am able to jump so far but not to land savely there - any dodge existing?

[Napostriouf]

@Antimensch You need to press in front, and then once you quit the platform, press back then you gonna be able to jump around 121 meters! ^,^ But you must be at the exact right time, if not you would have around 95 meters.
