How to unlock the On Point achievement in Kinectimals - Definitive Guide

This achievement is conpleted in suri mountain after unlocking the third or fourth contest site there called "hoop-la". You have to toss the hoop over the fireworks; some say, without allowing the hoop to get stuck on the top of the firework. Do this with three different fireworks and the achievement is yours.

As long as the firework goes off ..it counts wether it gets stuck on top or goes fully around the hoop.

You can adjust the hoop in flight by ducking down suddenly whn over the firework. You can also lean left or right, but I would suggest getting the angle right then simply ducking down when your hoop is about to go over any given rocket. The goal is to get three fireworks in a row to go off.not getting three rings over one firework.

Another solution from a member of xbox360a says the second round is the best due to the bunching of the fireworks. I got this right after writing the solution on the second round . Good luck

I am so terrible at this. Anyone got any pointers on aiming?

To clarify whether the hoop getting stuck stops the achievement I thought I would post my findings. Having been stuck on this for a long time I had many chances to see what counted and what didn't! As long as the firework goes off, it counts. Sometimes a hoop gets stuck but doesn't set the rocket off, this counst as a miss. Hope this clears up any confusion people might have :)

I just wanted to add that until I actually got the achievement I completely misinterpreted the actual requirements for it. It is probably obvious to everyone else, but for some reason I thought I had to get 3 rings over one firework before it took off (tough I know, but possible I believe), rather than 3 rings over any fireworks, just in a row. Not sure how I got that mixed up, but just in case anyone else thinks the same, hopefully this clears it up.

Can you wait for the firework to take off. This damn thing won't unlock for me and I have now hit 4 in a row :(

Can anyone clarify if they have to be "clean" tosses? Some people say they can hit the firework and make it go off and that counts. Others say it has to land clean and hit the ground.

The cheevo is not popping for me. I have gotten numerous 3,4,5 streaks, no pop. I have made the rings on 3 in a row with clean shots, no pop. Ideas? Beginning to think it is glitched.

try clearing your cache... sounds glitched after three in a row it should pop clean or not as long as you have three fireworks go off it should count.

I tried that. I will try it again I guess. I have had three fireworks go off dozens of times.

Finally got this ridiculous achievement. Way too random. Good guide, though. :)

This achievement is incredibly random. After I have no idea how many 3-in-a-row, it finally clicked.

After months of off and on frustration, I finally got it. This is how...

I had the Bears DLC downloaded...someone posted that the DLC was interfering with the cheevo. I was skeptical, but I deleted the Bears DLC. Loaded up the game, had about two games, 5 mins later it popped. My tosses were not all "clean"...one rattled around a lot and the set the firework off. It popped the very first time I got 3 in a row. So, maybe this explains why people have gotten it right away whereas others have struggled. Who knows.

I hope that saves someone some frustration.

Thanks Shanker. I think I'll complete the main game before getting the DLC now. Same thing happened to me in Dead to Rights: Retribution. DLC shagged some achievements.

Actually the DLC doesn't affect the achievement. I just got it and I downloaded the DLC over a week ago. My niece and I were playing and she got 3 in a row two different times and then I did about twice also... then it popped up for me. I think it is just a glitchy achievement! roll

For me the dlc did affect the achievment. got it 2 times with dlc and no achievement. then i deleted the dlc and i got it the first try.

Maybe a tip that can help anyone. when i threw a ring and lifted my left leg up, the ring started to decend. Ducking also worked but my legs started to hurt so much after so many tries xD

You not only have to hit 3 in a row, but you have to do it quickly enough to get a x3 multiplier! Awful, but that may be why it didn't pop for some people.

@DizzyPie, that's not true, got three times x1 because I waited for the previous firework to get out of my screen. @everyone, here's another success story about removing the DLC, and then finally getting the achievement, in a single go even. It really helps!

I was able to get this by throwing the hoop and exaggerating my follow through. If you take a quick step backwards the disk will drop straight down. Also if you are going for the three in a row achievement wait until the rocket is gone before throwing your next hoop. It's frustrating to have it knocked out of the air by an active rocket. To get the gold medal on this, spam those suckers. It took me an hour of trying my high score was 24000. I got frustrated so I threw as many as I could all over the place and I got 45000. Also, if it is giving you trouble, try your off hand. I went lefty and got some pretty accurate throws.

In Suri Mountain there is a contest called "Firework Hoopla". You need to toss your ring over the fireworks 3 times in a row without a miss. This contest has 3 rounds so you have a good opportunity to get it here. You can replay this level as often as you like or even come back later via level select.
