I’ve never managed to do it before – nor have I seen it done – so I haven’t a clue if it was a one-time deal or something that’s actually reproducible. I hit RTL, but for some reason or another I could still control my movement using WASD, such that I was able to direct myself around even while in RTL form.
Moreover, the ride lasted much farther than would be expected; I was in the Plains of Ashford at the time, and it took me all the way from the exit from the cave where the south skill point is to the point below the cliffs where the vista is.
One of the best RTL rides I’ve ever had!
