Bonus X carries unless you get it to 7x so if on ball 1 or 2, stop at 6x
Bonus X follows the lit drop target banks, so always aim for the one that's lit until you max it
Hit your left orbit a lot of times for riptide
It's often a good idea to hold and skillfully drop the upper flippers to allow the ball fall to the lower flippers safely.
Drop a bank of targets to light it's number 1-2-3. Next time leave one target standing and it will light for bonus value (not multiplied).
Each drop spots one light in Riptide. When hit again a target will score 1K for each lit light. Drop all banks to score 11K per target.
Soft plunge to avoid dangerous return to the flippers.
Use top right flipper to sweep across center drops to knock down more than one at a time.
