Circle-jump (Quake)

Circle-jumping is a fundamental movement tech of Quake Live.

• Combination of ground and air acceleration.

• Base movement from moving forward: 320 u/s.

• Diagonal movement from forward+left/right and moving mouse (moving in a circle): up to 400 u/s.

• Goal is to jump at with that ideal 400 u/s velocity.

• Gain more velocity in the air by strafing.
