I've done this with a C' date=' but the C had clinging already. I just allowed the C to make an Acrobatic's roll as they touched a surface and then leap. To change direction in the middle of the leap I used the landing/touch to allow the direction change. The C had 18" leap and a acrobatics roll of 17-, so he could take a full 18" move and could alter the direction each time he landed. I also allowed the C to buy levels with leaping so he could stop using the acrobatics roll and just use a level for the bounces.[/quote']

 

This topic has come up before and using Movement skill levels to determine how many times you can "Bounce" during a leap was something I suggested. I use it in my games, though no one has yet to buy the ability (I plan to for one of my characters though)

Anyone else remember those old Dragon Magazine powers?

 

Bounce in particular?

EDM to a dimension where all walls are horizontal but you can only stay for a phase?

 

sorry duke, really....

 

On a more sensible note I would go with clinging limited to 'only for one phase on any given surface' (-1/2, probably) or flight limited to require touching a horizontal or vertical surface each phase PLUS (or minus, I suppose) can only change direction when in contact with a surface - the latter is probably the better option as it would enable you to make several 'leaps' in a single phase between different surfaces. Total limitation of -3/4 (can't be -1 as it would then cost the same as leaping but be more useful).
