Rocket Ski Jumping
Rocket Ski Jumping is a Dream event in the DS Version of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. It is very similar to Dream Long Jump in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. The event takes place on a new place called Cape Aurora. The player must try to land on the farthest snow island possible. The stylus is used for this event. An Energy bar is shown near the top right to show how much farther the character can go before losing altitude. To move the character, touch wherever you want the character to go. Ascending and moving side to side uses energy. Stroke up with the stylus to boost, which also uses energy. Preferably, this should be performed just before a ring, to lose the least energy possible. Items appear in this event, and Egg pawns fly around as well. If a character gets too close to them, the Egg pawn will fly towards the character and explode if they run into it. When all energy is depleted, the rockets on the skis will fall off and the character will start to descend. To land, stroke down, but avoid falling into the water either straight away or after landing, which is tricky.
