Hello! So, I am facing a very annoying problem—I just lose all my speed doing strafe jumps.
It is almost impossible to do some jumps, it happens when I do longjumps too, I get like -19 gain on my first strafe, even when I do very slow strafes. How is it even possible?

Is there a solution for this?
Did someone here face the same problem?

Well with a bigger airtime you usually get more gain on the strafe, and if you "loose all your speed" doing jumps it just means your sync is very bad.

And no, even if the ljstats will show above 70 ish sync it doesn't mean you are actually getting decent sync.

I know it. And I said -19, not +19. And the airtime on first strafe is not that bad.

Oh I missed the - :D Well take a print of your average lj to show how your stats look.

I think you are trying to say that once you were able to strafe properly but somehow lately you lost all your sync etc, right? If so, the only thing I can tell you is for you to try 1strafe, 2, 3, etc, with good stats on every jumps. If this still doesnt help, play easy maps (like av_degyptianez) and bhop it with max 2 strafes, 3, 4... dunno but that helps me as its all about movement control rather than geeking harder maps with pointless highjumps (fu_extreme etc)

No it's not it.

I'm talking about hard strafe jumps like the ones on imkz_tsfh.

It is very hard to do them even with 100aa and 600-700 fps.

Hardware/Software related maybe ? Try another mouse if you have one ? Try another computer with the same mouse too ?

Everything is alright with the mouse.

if you're getting -19 gain on your first strafe, it's likely that you're not releasing W properly before you jump.

This is impossible, if this was the problem I would not even be playing and finishing hard maps.

I actually had the same problem on the jump from the second screenshot it is just very hard to keep the gains going when you have to do like a 180°+ turn without having alot space to run before it especially.
i can just recommend doing this jump on 2-3 perfect strafes dont go too fast on the first one because it might be the cause of your low gains in this occasion.

Hey man, cool to see you here! :D So, the problem is not this jump in special, but all strafe jumps. I try to turn slowly in some jumps but I still lose speed, it can be seen better on strafejumps_h. It seems to happen randomly.

Lol strafe amount has nothing to do with being a pro player or not. Soviet does 5 strafes per jump and is able to finish the most extreme maps.
