Repulse
Repulse is the 3rd Advanced floor in Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball Deluxe, and Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania, the 43rd Ultimate stage with continues in Super Monkey Ball Deluxe (63rd without continues), and the 15th Marathon stage of Super Monkey Ball in Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.
In Story Mode, it appears as World 3-2 and is given a 2 out of 10 difficulty rating.
Description
The stage features two roughly square-shaped platforms with rectangular holes punched out in the centre of the inner edge, such that they form roughly U-shaped platforms. The two platforms are separated by a large gap, bridged by two rectangular platforms that move side-to-side in opposition to each other. The U-shaped platform on the other side of the gap to the start point houses the goal.
Strategy
Since use of the moving platforms is necessary to cross the gap, some care is needed to account for the motion and acceleration of the moving platforms to avoid a fallout, as momentum is preserved for the ball. The sides of the moving platforms have lips on them which make staying on them easier.
