Description[]
This stage features lots of sloped paths with peaks, hence the name. There are two pathways of sloped paths, as well as two individual sloped paths. One of these pathways' paths are overall wider than the other pathway's paths. The paths of each pathway decrease in width from the beginning of the stage to the end. There are small, square-shaped platforms adjoining these sloped paths. There are several banana bunches along the overall, narrower pathway.
Goal Tutorial[]
To get to the goal, roll over the center of the first sloped path's peak, and then pull back as soon as you roll over the peak. Then, turn left, and roll over the center of the first sloped path's peak of the overall, wider pathway unless you are extremely confident about rolling along the overall, narrower pathway; then, pull back as soon as you roll over the peak. Repeat his pattern until you make it to the final, sloped path. Once you have made it to the final, sloped path, roll along it as straight as you can, and roll along it at a moderate speed. Then, roll into the goal.
Shortcut[]
Roll to the back of the starting platform. Then, go quickly toward the first sloped path's peak, bouncing off the angled sides of the platform, and fly straight across the gap to the square-shaped platform with the single banana. Balance yourself as well as you can on the sloped path leading to the goal.
In Banana Mania[]
In Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania, it is possible to clear the gap without rolling back. In Story Mode, pressing forward at just the right time, roughly halfway through the fall of the small bounce in which from spawning, will allow the player to clear the gap and roll straight into the goal by holding forward. The timing for this is fairly tight but consistent. In Challenge Mode, holding forward immediately will cause the ball to bounce up off the edge of the platform on the other side. From there, returning to neutral for a bit and then continuing to hold forward will allow for completion.
