Overview
The player must use two pressure switches to move a group of 8-ball launchers, to make an 8-ball break 40 8-ball bumpers within 1 minute and 30 seconds. The test is failed when they do not succeed in destroying all the 8-ball bumpers in time.
Final checkpoint
This section is a small platform with two pressure switches that are pressed when standing on one. In the distance is a structure containing Bounce Pads as the floor, an 8-ball bouncing on one of them, two sets of 8-ball launchers that move to one side depending on which switch is pressed, and forty 8-ball bumpers which have to be broken. To start breaking, press the right pressure switch to move the 8-ball launchers to the right to launch the 8-ball. Use the pressure switches to move the 8-ball launchers to the right and to the left and keep launching the 8-ball until all 8-ball bumpers are broken. The test is passed immediately after the last 8-ball bumper is broken.
