View source for Ultra Jump

An Ultra jump, often referred to simply as an "Ultra" or "Ultra Hop" is one of, if not the most important speedrun tech in Pseudoregalia. There are a few variations of it and it allows sybil to perform very high jumps in any direction.

An Ultra generally refers to the act of performing a max height Skid Jump in combination with a [[Skids and Skid Jumps#Gainer|Gainer]] to get massive height in any direction.

== Simple Ultra ==
If Sybil is moving fast in the air and performs a Gainer the moment she touches the ground, she will perform an Ultra Jump. Assuming well-timed inputs, she needs approximately 870 speed going into the ground to get a blue trail, and 830 to get max height.

== Slide Ultra ==
If Sybil has the [[Slide]] Ability, she can perform an Ultra completely from the ground using a slide cancel. The speed gained from the slide is preserved during the slide cancel and used to get a really good skid jump.

The inputs to perform a Slide Ultra are as follows:
# Slide
# While holding backwards, jump to cancel the slide and start a Skid
# Immediately hold forwards (or any direction) and jump again during the Skid/Gainer

If struggling, try just doing backwards Slide Ultras to start, to get a feeling for the timing of the jump inputs. Then when you are comfortable getting at least blue trails this way, try working in the direction change.

== Neutral Ultra ==

== Chained Ultras ==

== Controller Vs Keyboard and Mouse ==

Since part of performing an ultra involves moving backwards, to perform more optimal ones, there should be minimal time between the skid and the jump inputs, otherwise Sybil will slow down more and potentially impact your ability to get max height.

This is a bigger issue when using a control stick for movement, as moving the stick takes a non-zero amount of time and simultaneous directional inputs aren't possible. So it is recommended for controller runners to try using steam input to bind a button on controller to the S key, to perform more optimal ultras. [Link to input bindings spreadsheet?] It also helps when performing Chained Ultras and can make ultras in other directions easier to manage.
