The fuck? How do you forget to strafe? And you’ve been practicing for 6 months? Christ. Do this:

1. map gasworks
2. sv\_gravity 0
3. Jump up and start strafing.

This is where the magic happens.

yep surprising right  
ive did the gasworks thing first when you posted it on that guys how to speedrun half life thread  
and ive completed hop training  
ill do that everyday now on  
im actually really good at strafing now so ill try to remember next time  
hopefully i get a time under 50 seconds  
ill probably get 49 next time  
also yeah the proof is in the video, as you can see i only strafed when i do large gaps.

Like Winded said, mid air strafes are key. The more strafes you can get in sync with your mouse looks, the faster you’ll go, though that’s not to say you should just spam the strafe keys and wiggle your mouse really fast, but you’ll know when to make the extra strafes, it will just feel right (usually when you need to gain a lot of speed in a short distance); otherwise, just make sure you’re constantly strafing left and right and you’ll go fast, as long as your mouse looks are smooth.

EDIT: If you own CS1.6, I’d suggest trying out some bhop servers there to get the hang of strafing. CS is a really good game to practice your bhop because of the natural slowdown, which causes you to have to increase the amount of strafes you do once you start slowing down.

Not claiming to be an expert since i’m also a beginner but, try this:  
Load a big open map, position yourself in the center of the map, press the A key, move your mouse slowly to the left and hold space. This will probably give you a basic understanding of how it works.

Also, to improve your bunnyrace run, try and avoid moving in square-like 90 degree turns and try to cut corners instead for a shorter path.

Maybe you didn’t try hard enough? But, I guess everyone has their own educability. \*Is that a correct word? \*Keep practicing.

Don’t practice on 1.0, that has no slowdown. Make sure it’s 1.4 or above if you’re going to try CS bhop.
