    Have seen the video. Not too bad! Hopefully I can reproduce this using my
    Feisar. Are you really using an DS3 and the stick to do BRs? You can pull them
    so fast. Nice!

    @Matt_XIII_67: Hey, good work on AP R. Wellington should think about a
    serious comeback.

    I finally come to love syncopia, I just wait for the ice cream and can't help but love the work Rita's done on the pure4

    "I'm just a player, you are the show" as said hughie tomasson, thanks so much SL for this, you guys (and girls) really rock ! ...
    Glad that you now love it as well. Those structures seem everlasting. SL did
    a serious job here. You will remember that WipEout HD ZONE didn't made it
    through the epilepsy test, initially. But instead of thinking about how to put
    more effects into the ZONE mode post-HD, SL went into another (new) direction.
    They essentially integrated some smoother equalizers for the Pure4 tracks and
    have focused on those sourrounding structures which do not produce any issues
    with resprect to the epilepsy test and which do deliver a so delightful experience.
    What impresses me the most is that the wohle thing is art, its not something
    simply coming out of an equation, all the structures and their arrangement need
    a very creative mind to put them into perspective. Thx again, Rita.

    @tileon: We have to make a Zone Battle Cup.

    I didn't played ZONE the last week coz I injured my hand a bit due to playing
    Online and Speed Lap the last two weeks straight. xD But I thought I could at
    least practise something I wanted to do before, i.e. finding the right amount
    of counter-airbraking through the first corner combination on Syncopia at high
    speeds. On my third run I found the right balance I was looking for. Here are
    two beautiful pictures I took from my session;



    But the thing is that these two pictures were taken in a zone where no man was
    gone before. Sorry, Wotan!

    Next-up, zone 160!

    The video is mine in fact
    I use ds3 with pad and motion control with settings at 100% (pitch only).

    @leungbok: The video is actually not (anymore) the one, one could find under
    the given link. It was TDR and now it's TJ. Anyways. So you are using the pad
    to do the BRs. Hmmm.... okey. Is there a top3-racer using the stick?

    @Wotan: Didn't wanted to set a 150, did only about 100 perfect zones and such.
    You were so close. But in the end, 150 is just a number. And I didn't felt the
    same like I was feeling the day I reached zone 100 on AP back in the days.
    Zone 150 is obviously not the limit. It's difficult to say just yet what the
    limit will be coz we're just some laps into Syncopia when compared to, for
    example, AP. Sure, we profit from past ZONE experience, but I don't have the
    feeling that I've maximized out anything just yet on Syncopia. I think, I can
    do a 160 / 130. So I would say, a possible limit might be 170 / 140. Doing 120
    perfect zones straight should also be possile somehow, did already 100 perfect
    zones straight, which isn't too difficult. But anyways, a 160 would already be
    a very very tough result. One has to imagine that you will race for about half
    an hour! And the thing with ZONE is that one needs to be at his/her best at the
    end. But that's why we are here, aren't we? So let's blow the hell out of
    Syncopia!

    Just one thing, Wotan. I'm glad that you go with me up there! It makes the
    whole thing much more enjoyable. And I'm sure Kingheim will follow suit, like
    he always did back on HD.

    Pbs, the link is my youtube chain, that's why it changed with new videos uploaded. Here the link to TDR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kcg_gbQTZIM
    Wotan, Pirahpac, Kingheim are stick users

    LOL nice!

    PS and Wotan you have inspired me to change back to stick control. I don`t think I can play zone properly with dpad. I will never get near these insane runs but zone needs to be smooth and smooth needs to be stick. You guys are legends in zone, it`s entertaining to watch this thread, keep it up!!

    Just out of interest. Has anyone produced a list of zones and the speed of the craft at those zones.
    Eg. Zone 10: 650kph, Zone 20: 700kph etc?
    I'd be interested to know if its linear or starts to converge the higher you go?
    Obviously once you get to zone 120+ you'd be reluctant to crash on purpose and see what speed you were on, but maybe someone would like to

    wow ! gg wotan and ProblemSolver !!!!

    ProblemSolver, your pictures are awesome ! That narrow view with a damaged craft really rock

    @Reezy : that's an interesting topic, it would be nice to be able to catch top speeds at different zones, it would requires a topic of its own, and then with gnuplot we would be able to draw the curve and estimate the speeds at a given zone

    huff! huff! reached zone 133, improving a little each day, next step 140...
    Wait for me PS, Wotan & Kingheim!
    The problem with Syncopia is that each run takes a lot of time.

    Can't find many Zone Battle opponents, a Zone Battle Cup would be great!

    Had some Amazing races on ZB with Problem Solver and Deepmix. I came out on top but they gave me a huge run for my money. most of the races were very close.

    what I meant was I had majority of the wins dont worry PS. I know you can give me a run for my money.

    But if My memory fails me.. who won the Last Anulpha Pass?....

    I think for Mod The record is 51. I dont hold record for it.

    Ok Vart, I got a little present for you --> .
    It's not that I can always win on AP, as someone may expect. It's a battle, at
    least. Look, we chatted before that one race at AP who will win and whatever,
    but actually non of us won the race coz Phantron thought otherwise.

    @Wotan: So you're into ZONE like nothing else atm, heh? I've seen that you
    are active on most of the tracks. Pfeww. Mach 1 on Mod? No idea just yet, but
    a nice goal to reach.

    Oh dear! xD Someone got this robot thing started.
    Perhaps I should post some real pictures of mine.

    Yeah use the stick!

    I have such a list, but can't find it at the moment.

    Out of curiosity, can you do a BR with a Feisar at the little crest on TDR
    without boosting? I guess, I'm too slow to pull the BR over there just yet.
    But anyways, I've set a new PB, 21:69 with only two BRs and with 11 pads.
    So I'm the pad leader. xD What's the gain in time doing a BR?

    @sh1kamaru-: Yeah nice picture, heh? Since it wasn't a record going by score,
    I thought why not taking some good pictures out of zone 150.

    Hurry up, zone 140 at least! Would be cool if every pro zoner here would be in
    the 150 some day. That would really show that we are, well, sick? (if we aren't
    already xD)

    I think its around 0.3 - 0.5 seconds. Somewhere around that area.

    And congrats on zone 150 btw , the competition between you guys is really hotting up .

    Took the lead on Modesto; 152k / 57 / 38.
    With a bit of training, I think I can do a 65 / 45.

    But the tearing and shuttering sucks so hard. And this is also the reason I don't
    zone on the new Fury tracks (minus the Pure4), but I wanted to give Modesto
    a try, at least. Anyways, it's not fun to play that way.

    @SL: Please remove geometry if the engine can guaranty 60fps in ZONE!
