How to glide on GTA

GTA is a series of video games that can offer continuous surprises. In fact, over the years, fans have managed to find several “hidden gems”, which have offered them hours and hours of further fun. There is essentially everything in GTA , which is also why Rockstar Games titles have been so successful.

In any case, you recently discovered that it is possible to do a “trick” with the bike. For this reason, now you are wondering how to glide on GTA , since you have seen some absurd videos online about it and you have every intention of trying to replicate what is seen in the latter. However, you have not quite understood how it is possible to do such a thing.

Don’t worry – you’ve come to just the right place. In fact, in this tutorial I will analyze the topic, going into the details of what are the techniques used by the most skilled players to implement this “trick”. What do you say? Are you ready to learn GTA glide? Below you can find all the relevant information. There is nothing left for me to do, except wish you good reading and have fun!

Preliminary information

Before going into the details of the procedure on how to glide on GTA , I think it may interest you to know more about this possibility.

Well, a glide essentially consists in the possibility of “flying” with a motorcycle . No, I am not referring to what can be done with the basic Oppressor MK II , but to the possibility of exploiting a bug, a “game error” , to be able to “fly” with a basic vehicle, which generally does not would allow it.

More precisely, the glide is generally performed by positioning the bike “upside down” in the air or in any case in “strange” positions. Then, by means of a combination of accelerator and wheel movement , the user tries to “cheat” the game in order to keep the bike “in flight”.

Don’t misunderstand: using the glide to move around the map is not comfortable, quite the opposite. Furthermore, to start it is always good to use a particularly high ramp , in order to then try to exploit the bug. I also let you imagine what happens if you do the wrong thing (which will probably happen several times).

In short, usually the glide is carried out by players only to experience the feeling of having found a bug in the game, as well as to show it to their friends. However, if you don’t really care much about doing this, there really aren’t any particular reasons to proceed.

The question is in fact very similar to that of the “much coveted” bag of GTA Online : obtaining the latter permanently is possible, but it passes through a glitch, a “game error”, and therefore the procedure is not well seen from everyone and could potentially lead to problems with your account if done online (you never know in these cases).

In short, consider well if you want to actually perform the glide, since it is an operation essentially an end in itself and, if you have already seen the videos online that show what it is, trying to implement it could only be a waste of time. (also due to any updates, it may not work).

In any case, if you really think you want to try this “trick”, you just have to continue reading the tutorial. My advice is to try to run it in GTA’s Story mode, so as not to “bother” other players.

In short, I warned you: the choice is yours and now you have all the information to make it consciously.

How to glide on GTA

After explaining to you what a glide is and explaining the general situation, I would say that it is time to take action. Below are all the details of the case, related to both GTA 5 and its online mode, GTA Online .

How to glide on GTA 5

Since you are exploiting a bug, a “game mistake”, you have probably already guessed that it may not be essentially easy (or impossible) to glide.

In any case, to give it a try, once you enter the Story mode of GTA 5 , you must first go to an area where there is a ramp . If you want some advice, an interesting place is the port of Los Santos , present in the lower center of the map.

There are actually various ramps in this area, as well as there are dozens of them all over the Rockstar Games title map, but the one I found most comfortable to use is located near the large building where we generally, in GTA Online , it would be possible to place the Terrorbyte or otherwise buy the night club .

More precisely, you have to go to the right of the structure, leaving it behind your character. In short, you shouldn’t have any particular problems finding this ramp , which from my point of view represents one of the best places in GTA to try the glide.

For the rest, once you have reached the ramp and positioned yourself in the right place to “take the run” for the jump with your bike (for example, I recommend using a Pegassi Bati 801 ), you just need to accelerate to the maximum. (eg the R2 button on the controller on PS4 ) and, as soon as the “jump” begins, flip the bike , placing your character upside down .

After that, all you have to do is make the left analogue continuous laps quickly , counterclockwise , always holding down the accelerator button , in order to try to “convince” the game that you are moving with the bike.

Once this is done, if the glide works, you can try to go up or move like this, trying to “balance” the character’s body . However, I reiterate that moving with a glide is not exactly the best way to explore the map. Also, due to various updates or other, you may just not succeed (I warned you).

By placing the wheels upwards you can usually climb , but by moving your character “obliquely” the speed can potentially increase a lot. However, since this is a “game error”, you understand well that it is difficult for me to provide you with detailed information, as anything could happen “in the air” .

You may also have to try several times to be able to exploit the bug (always if it is “available” in your version of the game). For the rest, if you do not feel comfortable making the jump via the ramp that I have recommended, you can obviously choose any other one on the map, which you may “know” better.

I remind you that in a title like GTA, even “unconventional foundations” can do just fine . For example, there are not a few users who have found a way to make particularly long jumps starting from certain mountains , or “taking” the steps in the right way .

In short, the map of GTA 5 is actually full of possibilities to make jumps in motion: you just need to have the right resort and find the “ramp” that best suits your needs, then trying to exploit the bug and try to run a glide .

Among other things, by going particularly high with the latter, you can then try to direct your motorcycle , reaching, for example, the sea or in any case a body of water , in order to try to “land” in a more or less safe , although obviously it will be difficult to “save” the bike (but you are doing it a lot in Story mode, so there shouldn’t be any particular problems).

In any case, if you need to, I remind you that on these pages you can find my tutorial on how to make money on GTA offline (you may need it for motorcycles, since you may have to make more attempts).

Summing up, the glide is certainly an interesting “gimmick”, which demonstrates once again how much GTA can turn out to be a continuous discovery, as well as how much the community of fans is always ready to find all the possible “goodies” hidden within the title. of Rockstar Games, including those not exactly wanted by the developers.

How to Glide in GTA Online

How do you say? Would you like to glide in GTA Online and not in Story Mode? I’ll explain immediately what you can do.

As explained in the preliminary chapter , this operation actually exploits a “game error”, so running it within GTA Online may not be exactly the wisest of ideas .

In fact, you should know that not only developers could potentially take action regarding your account, but you could also cause some “headaches” to other players , as well as end up in the center of some bugs that could compromise the gaming experience.

I know: you have good intentions and are probably convinced that nothing will happen by performing this action in GTA Online, but the variables involved are many and, since it is, in fact, an operation for its own sake, my advice can only be to let it go.

In fact, exploiting glitches and bugs in an online game is never a good idea , as this type of title is designed to allow all users the same gaming experience and when someone performs such actions could potentially be seen as a “cheater” by others (therefore as a player who cheats).

In short, if you really want to experience the sensation offered by a glide, I invite you to follow the instructions in the chapter on the Story mode of GTA 5 . In fact, in the latter you will not “bother” anyone and you can do all the tests you want without too many problems, since the game is yours.

For the rest, I remind you that GTA already offers countless basic possibilities, so you certainly don’t have to use bugs to have fun within the Rockstar Games title. If you need concrete ideas for your gaming sessions, I invite you to consult the page of my site dedicated to GTA .

In fact, in the latter you can find many other guides that could potentially be for you. There are both tutorials related to GTA Online and Story Mode from GTA 5, so you shouldn’t have any particular trouble finding something that might be right for you (for example, have you ever tried to become an animal in GTA ?).
