This is an old topic that I wish I could have seen earlier because this might actually be quite useful. I mean, we're able to cross large gaps by charge jumping but there's no way to get to high places like you could in Spyro 2... Do you remember how much higher you jumped when you did this?

I'm pretty sure all that you said is useless.

I was just wondering... I haven't seen people talking about it here on this forum, but it may be well known, but I will ask if you know this:
you are standing at wall turned backwards to it and the camera is aimed at the wall ( so you can see spyro's eyes ). And now when you jump and hold up arrow button, you will jum higher than usual. It is quite hard, because when you reach the edge of the wall, spyro tends to go forward, so you often have to jump immediately after you touch it.
It is possible to do it also in spyro 2, but it is useless because of double jump...
