the ending jack in hand throw is 13 measures long. it's a constant right jack for 13 straight measures at 200bpm, with jumps mixed in. not that the jumps really make it any harder... if you can do the jacks, i'm sure you can handle the jumps thrown in. but 13 measures = 208 jacks in a row at 200bpm. that's almost 16 straight seconds, as jx said. (200 in a row would be exactly 15 seconds... although i think it's actually a bit less than 13 measures. so it's probably right around 15 seconds, not 16.)

sprite got 5 or 6 measures into that ending... and it's not like the 2 minutes leading up to the ending is easy, mind you. it's full of measure-long 200bpm 16ths jacks and then slower hand-trill things. that's what sprite said kept screwing him up, switching between vibrating and not vibrating back and forth. that it was the "easy" sections that were messing him up.

but the ending jack is just nuts.
