Easy Augmented Reality Challenge:

One of the last four Augmented Reality Challenges appears to be difficult because
you are supposed to execute a U-turn during your dive bomb. This can be done easier
by using the grapple boost going past the first checkpoint, then turning around
while gliding. You can then glide through all the checkpoints much easier.
