CGSS HELP!

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out how to do the CGSS since 4 months now -.- I can go oob consistently, but I never reach the goal ring :( This is what happens everytime I try to do this skip:

what am I doing wrong? Someone can help me please?

PS: To be honest, using the strat from the box, I was able to almost do it once, but I don't know how...

I don't use this specific method, but your direction changing in general looks way too aggressive.

Rapidly changing direction whilst airborne causes you to lose a lot of speed, which is why we tell people learning this skip to prioritise smooth, controlled direction changing.

It looks to me as you're getting out of bounds that you're going way further up than necessary, which would explain why you're struggling to reach the goal ring as this puts you further away from the target. Using the box method is simultaneously worse for this as you're starting further away from the goal ring, increasing the total distance that you need.

Once you're in flight, your control stick angle was also very inconsistent, so you're just not taking a straight line. All these factors individually have a slight effect on your distance, but together have a large impact on whether an attempt will be successful or not, you absolutely cannot be sloppy with CGSS and assume that you can be vaguely correct and it'll be 'close enough'.

you just didn't use your hover frames, every time you jump you get 60 frames where your falling speed is decreased. hold A while you charge your spindash and hold it for a second as you do the skip normally. this way, you'll get much more distance and it'll be easier to hit the goal ring

alternatively, if holding A while spindashing is awkward for you, you can just pause the game when you're out of bounds and press A to unpause but keep holding A
