How to use Fortnite’s Cube to fly around the map without taking damage

It’s long been known that Fortnite players are able to shoot at the massive cube to use it’s powers to soar high into the air and fly to another location.

Unfortunately, this method means that players end up taking damage from the cube when it blasts back at them in retaliation, and some feel that the damage taken may not be worth the ability to quickly rotate.

Thankfully, Reddit user ‘ImSpeedyGonzalez’ has found a way to utilize the cube, affectionately nicknamed Kevin by Fortnite fans, to travel large distances around the map without losing any precious health points.

Some Fortnite fans have already noticed that the storm underneath Kevin can lift players into the air when they use a glider, allowing them to land on the fragments of the island that surround the cube.

ImSpeedyGonzalez, however, reveals that by aiming for the south-western corner of the northern island fragment after you have dived down underneath the cube, players can actually fly well above the island into the sky, meaning they can quickly rotate away from the area without taking any damage.

ImSpeedyGonzalez says that he has tested it with the other islands that surround the cube, but found the most consistent results when using the northern island.

Unfortunately, this method doesn’t allow players to fly the whole way across the map like you can when shooting the cube, but it still allows players to make it all the way to locations such as Wailing Woods, Retail Row and even to the edge of Fatal Fields.
