if they failed like takeda in 35 or Kanno in 37 on the first track but were able to pull themselves up onto the bar and leap to the next one?

I guess even if it was allowed no one would actually try to attempt it, as it was very dangerous decision if you completely missed the bar.

In all likelihood a manoeuvre like that would also burn too much time for the person to complete the stage anyway, so it would be dangerous and ultimately pointless!

Well, the way you said 'pull themselves up onto the bar' I was imagining someone balancing on top of the bar in the middle of the dip and using the gained height to clear the extra distance to the second bar, which is not only incredibly difficult balance-wise, but if they slip or miss they're going to smash their face off the runners, which is, bad. Even staying below the bar and trying to swing to the second bar is difficult because of the distance and the fact you can't brace the Dragon Glider bar like you can the Pipe Slider bar. The extra momentum generated by trying to swing using the way the bar moves just raises the chance of injury, either missing and hitting the water real hard, or bashing a limb off the runners on the way down because of how uncontrolled that jump would be. I imagine it probably is 'illegal' to continue on the Dragon Glider if you miss the jump for these reasons - there's no controllable way to make the transition, just like how front-facing cliffhanger transitions are considered uncontrollable too. |
