Longjump: Questions and answers
It's been 4 years that I can't strafe anymore, it seems like my right strafe can't sync at all
Right pre (I can't even do 270 prestrafe) :
LJ Distance: 235.332382 Maxspeed: 287.302185 (25.972) Prestrafe: 261.329742 Strafes: 6 Sync: 37%
1 13.832 0.000 20.2 66
2 6.830 0.000 13.5 88
3 1.160 0.000 20.3 6
4 3.459 0.000 13.3 60
5 0.079 0.064 20.3 6
6 0.609 0.000 12.2 22
Left pre (the only pre where I can lj) :
LJ Distance: 249.258972 Maxspeed: 320.985839 (48.003) Prestrafe: 272.982788 Strafes: 7 Sync: 58%
1 13.274 0.000 14.9 100
2 9.779 0.219 20.2 36
3 7.981 0.000 10.9 100
4 4.784 0.000 18.7 25
5 6.115 0.000 14.0 75
6 6.067 0.000 15.6 20
7 0.000 0.593 5.3 50
Any idea how I could improve? I've been trying to lj right pre for 30 min here and there but I can't do a good prestrafe nor I can lj more than 250 at all. On my left pre it's better but still my right strafes are terrible :(

I had this problem a lot of times when I forced myself to do LJ and forgot to do basic thing.
You left your W key too early when you are suppose to.
Only way to fix this is practing LJ prestrafe with 1 strafe.
Try to geek 230-237 lj blocks just with 1 strafe after that 238-245 with 2 strafes and it would be fine :)
This happened to me when I changed my normal keyboard to a mechanical, I could fix my strafes by changing my mouse sensitivity so it would work fine with my keyboard, thats what worked for me

Your keypresses are really inconsistent. You're holding D too long compared to A on every strafe and on both pres. Also your mouse moves closer to the rhytm of your A thus your D syncs are terrible

I would suggest that u start shaping your strafes and visualize it, with a constant number of strafes.
This method used to stabilize my timing.
g-Lp or maybe this bug which affects moving left but not right as much.

Thanks for you information, that's interesting!

Can anybody tell why so poor distance?
6 strafes and 21 airtime on first
Originally posted by Evis6 strafes and 21 airtime on first
what's optimal for this amount of strafes, 15% +-?
do 7strafes and the problem fixes itself
too wide strafes, and/or bugged stats probably cuz you hit the edge of block.
Is it true that you have to devide 100% by amount of strafes to get top value of required airtimes ? In 6 strafes case - 16.6%

If you are going for fully symmetrical and identical strafes then yes. However, is not necessary.
@Hardbitter 3's As others already mentioned, your airtimes are simply too big.
@fykseN For anyone jumping with 6-8 strafes I would recommend trying to keep airtimes within 12-15%
@SAJKEE As soniizin said, only if you're trying to do identical strafes. But this is in no way necessary for good distances.
Generally speaking the things that most affect your longjump distances can't even really be seen from the jumpstats. What you should focus on is your launch from prestrafe and the switches between strafes. These are the places where your distances suffer the most if you do mistakes.
