Glide through all the targets without touching the ground to complete the AR Training
There are 5 green symbols. Glide through them at constant speed. Make small adjustments left and right as required. Adjust vertical direction sharply downwards between 4th and 5th icon, as the last icon is much lower then the one before it. You could also try just dropping into it once you are above it.
1st symbol: Glide
2nd symbol: Glide
3rd symbol: Glide
4th symbol: Glide
5th symbol: Glide with sharp degree downward
If you miss one of them you will get:
