Realistic gravity in Dyrdek's Plaza

A lot of you know about a zone in the Plaza in which pressing triangle will result in you being slowly lifted several feet up in the air. Well, turns out doing tricks in some spots will make you pop very low. In fact, you will often bail upon doing tre flips and 360 inward heels. I thought this could be of some use to people who want to include flatground tricks in their vids but think it doesn't look very realistic elsewhere.

It's in the north-east corner of the map, behind the gas stations and almost intersecting the bridge. You can get there by doing a no-comply glitch, or just coffin through a hole next to the barrels.

Has anyone tried this yet? I got a suggestion to find a glitch which is of some use to people who skate realistically, so I thought of this one. Shame to see it wasted..

Yeah, this works, thanks alot. Flatground tricks look awesome here. I'll maybe post a clip on skate.reel soon. Maybe. :p

EDIT: Dang, you can't get close to your skater with your camera when in that area. You gotta film from the edge of the magic place if you wanna film it. I uploaded a clip of the physics there but it doesn't show it in my skate.reel. :o

EDIT2: Okaay, here it is. http://skatereel.ea.com/members/2/187571421.aspx#Display

This is a great tip if it works! Haven't tried it yet, but plan on it. Too bad about the camera being stuck away from the skater, but I like super long lens shots for flatground stuff...

I'm gonna try it for sure.. sounds pretty cool.

I couldn't find the sweet spot haha.
