Mmh yeah, I was trying to stop myself circle jumping... it's quite automatic, but the thing is you gain speed briefly every time you turn while moving, and if you jump at the same time you keep the speed untill you land. So for example, every time you cut a corner you gain speed. After years of portalling it was hard to make it not look like a bhop >.< Anyway, I've played too much - I'll beat you another time!
Yeah, I know its difficult to NOT use all these things, the portal game engine allows to do.
When I was trying to improve my times, I also did some circle jumps "by accident"...

Haha, if I would have recorded all of my tries, my harddisk would be full right now.
1920x1200x60 FPS uncompressed AVI recorded with Fraps, where 1 min = 4,1 GB...
I just used the demo recording of portal, so Raidix can see what I tried and what to improve.
(You cant play the demo, because you dont have the test map =/ ...)
Try to beat my time, and maybe I gonna try to beat yours then - with a video!
