It's almost 2x the amount, you may be doing it wrong.
I must be getting it wrong as snake is not sliding as far. I can get what seems to be a boosted pivot grab, but that is about it. The slide is not as far was what it sounds like your describing. Man, I wish a vid was made for this, so I know when I'm doing it right.

Yeah, or at least if someone knows a video of this going on they should post it and let us know the time. I should be doing it right but it never hurt to be certain.
Good subsitute, Land marks. When I have been doing the regular dash grab, snake rushes forward something that looks about 1/6 the distance of FD. When I try the Boost Grab he rushes for rretty much the same distance as the dash grab, but a little bit further, except not the x2 that havokk mentioned.

umm he doesn't really slide, but the dash is alot farther, and if I'm right the grab range is further too

You should grab immediately after, almost at the same time but DA before grab. There is more of a time range for the dacus.

it looks like a dash grab and the timing is slightly different but not much harder

if you can mortar slide, you can boost grab

Dear Havokk (with two k's):

It appears that we have the exact name with a minor difference. That minor difference was not intentional.

Be it as it may, we both live in SoCal. I still haven't met you in person and I hope to soon for the sake of playing for our name.

What's that? Don't want to come to San Diego? That's ok, I'll go to you! We can play a set of first-to-10-games to establish the identity of Havok (at least in Cali). I'll bring someone of course, so they can record/witness what has happened and can provide us with proof, a winner.

Fail to comply will just mean that you do not care too much about the name and can just hand the tag over. But if you wish to attempt to keep your name then I will be most happy to challenge you to a Name Match.

Sincerely,

Havok (with one K)

Havokk hardly ever has the chance to get on here anymore. It's going to be awhile before you get a response.
