1. Catch The Upstream
Just as a start, catch the upstream at the cliff.
2. Pass Through The Circles At Left
Pass through the circles and collect particles. Position yourself a bit higher than particles and collect them all!
3. Use Sprint Before The Insignia
After passing through the last circle, you will see the 1st Insignia. Use the Sprint (Clicking left mouse button in PC) to maintain the altitude.
Up To 2nd Insignia
1. Pass Through Circles & Use Sprint
After collecting the 1st insgnia, pass through circles and use Sprint before incoming circles so as to maintain your altitude. It is better to keep your altitude a bit higher than the particles.
Sprint & Sprint When You See The 2nd Insignia
Use Sprint for two times after the last circle before the 2nd Insignia to keep up your altitude.
Up To 3rd Insignia
1. Sprint & Pass Through Circles
Sprint and pass through the wind current circles. Maintain your altitude a bit higher than particles.
2. Take The Right of the Course & Sprint To Get The 3rd Insignia
As you progress the course, you will encounter two ways in the course. Make sure to take the right way of the course.
Up To 4th Insignia
1. Sprint & Pass Through Circles
Just like you did, sprint and pass through circles collecting particles. Maintain the altitude and get the 4th Insigania.
Up To 5th Insignia
1. Use Ascend Before the 5th Insignia
If you need to position yourself higher at the 5th Insignia, you can use the Ascend option in this challenge mode! Then just land at the destination safely to finish the course.
Share Your Score
We think the challenge today is easier than the 2nd day course as we could finish the course in 2nd trial. (though score is awful). Please the best score of yours so everyone know how high you can earn scores.
Day 2 Tips (Spread Your Wings) - How To Get Higher Scores
Up To 1st Insignia
1: Use The Upstream By Gliding
2: Go Through The Airflow Circle
3:Use Ascend Before The 1st Insignia
After the airflow circle and before reaching 1st Insignia, use the ascend (E in PC). This action is limited to the gliding challenge event.
4:Get Insignia From Above
To smoothly move actions towards the next Insignia, get the first Insignia from above.
Up To 2nd Insignia
1: Pass Through The Airflow Circle Right After 1st Insignia
To maintain your speed, make sure to pass through the airflow circle right after getting the 1st insignia.
2: Pass Through The 2nd Airflow Circle If Possible
To maintain your speed, pass through the second circle as well. To do this, you need to get the first insignia from above.
3: Use Ascend Before The 2nd Insignia
Just like you did before the 1st Insignia, use the Ascend action before the 2nd Insignia too.
4: Get 2nd Insignia From Above Too
To smoothly move your actions towards the next Insignia, it is nicer to get the 2nd Insignia from above and maintain altitude.
Up To 3rd & 4th Insignia
1. Use Sprint Action Right After Getting The 2nd Insignia
You'd need to use Sprint action (special one for this event) right after getting the 2nd Insignia. This way, you can pass through the airflow circles ahead of you to max out your speed. In the image, altitude should be a bit more high but the player could still pass through the bottom edge of the airflow circle.
2. Collect At Least 2 Particles
After passing through the 2 airflow circles, you have a chance to get particles to be able to use the sprint action again. Make sure to get more than 2 particles.
3. Use Sprint Before The 3rd Circle
It is recommended to use Sprint action before the 3rd circle after the 2nd Insignia just to keep up your speed.
4. Pass Through the 3rd & 4th Circles
To maintain your speed, make sure to pass through the 3rd and 4th circles.
5. Use Ascend Before Insignias
Before reaching the 3rd Insignia, you need to use the Ascend action to maintain your altitude. You can actually get the 3rd and 4th Insignias in this step.
This is an image of the 4th Insignia, just to show how we could get the 4th Insignia.
Up To 5th Insignia
1. Pass Through Circles Ahead
Pass through the airflow circles ahead after you get the 4th Insignia!
2. (Likely Optional) Use Ascend Before 5th Insignia
We could not earn enough altitude before getting the 5th Insignia and needed to wait for CD for the ascend for 2 seconds. In the best scenario, you may not need to wait for Ascend CD. The key will be maintaining the altitude as high as possible after getting the 4th Insignia.
3. Stop Gliding & Fall Into The Ground, But Do Not Die
Above the point of goal, stop gliding and fall into the ground. However, you may die at landing. Before landing, reopen the glider and safely land into the ground.

Repeat The Course And Memorize
Since the courses can be repeated as much as you possible, you can keep going through them. Learn course and figure out how to get Insignias as you go through them.
Go Through All The Circles
In order to keep the speed, try to go through all the circles in the gliding course. It is recommended to go through the center part of all those circles.
Maintain Your Height By Descending
You will need to maintain your height by descending from time to time so that you can go through all the circles.
Best If You Don't Use Ascend
Although, pressing E (in case of PC) can let you ascend in this challenge mode, it's actually better not to use it. Ascend option is basically prepared as a last resort for taking you back to the course and not prepared to give you a better time record at least on the first day challenge.
Get All Particles To Use Sprint
Collect all the particles if you can. This is a time challenge and the result would be better if you can use Sprint option as many as possible in the course.
Get All Insignia In The Course
Get all 5 Insignias in the course! Just memorize where they are located in the course.
1st Insignia
2nd Insignia
3rd Insignia
4th Insignia & 5th Insignia
