13. Use Red Balloons To Glide Huge Distances

Like Fortnite's Launch Pads, Apex Legends has a way to essentially "redeploy" all over again, like you do at the beginning of the game.

Find any of the dangling yellow chords hanging from red balloons and tap Square/X to zip up, resulting in you being shot out the top in a direction of your choice.

Perfect for closing a massive amount of distance in a short time, you can take far longer looting any area near a balloon, then use it in the closing seconds to get back to safety.
