Um, can't remember which set up I used here!

It seems harder in reverse for some reason. My nitro blast setup was really loose so didn't work too well. Modified my old normal direction padova to get more grip. Getting some more 34.9's now when I don't crash

Yes....all I saw was indoor. Seem to work ok. Maybe not as consistant hence many crashes but three 34,9's in one run

So, now down to a 34.4
Although I crashed a lot:(
Two bits that dropped the time and made it consistently faster were widening the last corner to the straight.
and the corner before that big drop off jump, carrying more speed through before lifting off to the ledge.
Back on Gridirons btw:D

The ion's get worse the harder you push it seems. Gridirons work better, haven't tried any others yet. I've been dropping it off the ledge real slow but holding speed through the corner before. Probably slower but more consistant for me anyways
