Oh, nice, really like the expected solution ^^

@GWD9000
Thanks for all the feedback. I've just uploaded a vid so you can see the intended solution.

As Eagleshadow and Geneosis solved essentially, with more time spent making abolutely sure I got as much paint down on paintable floor as possible for both the leap into the angled portalable surface and the speeding bunnyhop method - having a little bit on the floor near the exit helps that little bit extra in maintaining momentum, but probably not really needed. I'm interested in seeing the intended solution which I assume is to do with filling the excursion funnel with orange gel, but I simply couldn't make it happen. Hopefully one day... Anyways, thanks for the map. Cheers.

Really well designed map, i did like the video of all the exploits.

Well I understand that the idea is to use the funnel to place orange gel at the center of the way, but I just don't get how X)

The first fling's a little difficult, but I usually do it in one or two tries.... I find it's easier to place the portal on the panel just before you hit it. I know a lot of people don't like that kind of puzzle, but then the idea was to make a skill test and not just a puzzle. Just realised I haven't made a solution vid for this one yet - It should involve a bit of curling and paint-flinging .

PS : I just watched the video of Eagleshadow and... I used almost exactly the same solution X)
PPS : I really hate quick double portal placement for the first fling -_- I hit the corner of the angled pannel instead of entering the portal so many times X)

Well, this is my solution ^^ I also tried this way : run, press the button and jump several times after the red gel, this was about to work but each time I hit the top of the door after the last jump and the door closed XD

Dude, that's amazing! Never would have thought of that myself... Cheers for the demo!

Actually, you know what - I'm just gonna leave your solution in. I just did it myself and realised it's actually just as cool as (if not cooler than) what I had in mind. It doesn't skip any of the other stages of the puzzle either, so it's fine by me. Sometimes multiple solutions can be a good thing!

Eagleshadow - wicked, thanks for the vid! The first thing I can just leave as it's no big deal, and same for the cube toss (hey, if you can do that, more power to you!). The third exploit is a worry, but easily fixed (just getting rid of some ceiling tiles). Nothing I can do about the fourth, but I don't think it's an easy thing to pull off anyway. I'll take a look at your maps - I owe you one!

I loved your map, it's amazing, although I did find uninteded sollutions but I realized it only after reading your forum post where you described your thought process behind making it. I've got quite a lot of feedback for you, so I've put all in a video, so here's your feedback and demonstrations of alternate solutions: http://youtu.be/YvW3idJRvHw

@Zombie Jesus - yup! One of the sports tested in this particular gymnasium is curling .

Wow, that took me way too long to solve. Was I supposed to soak the cube in orange gel ?

Great map, and another example how the PTI can be used for truly nice puzzles! I really liked how you have to manage the different sports to finish this Gymnasium.
