Written by saschwarz on May 30, 2016 .

I've added new Box layouts for working on a wide range of skills including: Serpentines, Threadles, Jump Wraps, and Back Sides. There are a pair of each of two layouts I'm calling "Arcs" and "Offset Serpentines".

Written by saschwarz on May 30, 2016 .

Now Similar Courses!

Written by saschwarz on Feb. 9, 2013 .

In the past when you created a course using the automatic generation feature you'd get a button to "Create Another Course - Same Settings". Clicking that button would generate another course of the same length with the same skills. The idea was to let you create a group of courses with similar challenges.
