I don’t know about jumping, but I know the plastic are more fragile then the metal.

If you put to much pressure on the rainbow in the reset channel, you’ll go straight through the rainbow and will never be able to ride it again.

It would be a bad thing.

1.You would have broken your puzzle

2.When you break through/down the wall, you get little bits of plastic stuck in the reset channel stopping you from even tuning the shaft.

3.You may need the rainbow to complete the red. :)

Sorry to hear about your revomaze. Bummer. I'm not trying anything funny on the rainbow. But where is the pot of gold found? At the end of the rainbow

there's a gap halfway the rainbow: I don't understand how can you go through it fully! you can't get at the end of the rainbow!

I agree that it seems impossible to cross it via the rainbow. I keep falling off the ledge a lot so I'm frustrated that it is more of a dexterity test than a puzzle right now. Grrr...

I have even been searching the traps for a hidden door to the promised land, but I have found nothing so far.

I can get into the rainbow in three different places from the reset line apart from the normal entry ramp in. :shock:

It doesn't jam anywhere and I didn't exert massive force to get into the rainbow in these areas. :?

Please confirm I have broken the Revo by doing this and can never solve it so I can order another one! :cry:

Barcared: Broken is when you can cross between traps around the rainbow at inappropriately locations, and as a result the rainbow is no longer continuous. It does not sound like your's is broken....
