This star looked absolutely impossible back then. Getting to 8/8 reds seemed about as hard as taic b1 reds already and the ending was just way too inconistent to ever get it in an attempt.
I found some nice strats for the first 2 reds and the other reds are rather tedious than hard, so getting to 8/8 isn't too bad. For the ending I found 3 strats. The first one was slope jumps and getting that turn was like completly impossible in the dark. Don't think I would've ever gotten the star with that strat. The second one was doing a chain lj down and doing 4 wallkicks. That was still insanely inconsistent, but a bit better.
The final one, the one I used, is to do a pretty precise asta tj with a firsty into the star. I still died 6 times to the last jump, which was frustrating, but at least I got it in the end. ~katze789
