How do I do some of the combos in the trial mode?  For some of the harder combos, no matter how many times I try to chain the attacks together, by like the third attack it just doesn't want to work.  So with Guile I'm trying to jump > heavy kick > hard punch > EX sonic boom > EX focus.  I can't get the EX sonic boom to come out in time, or at all.  Is there something I am missing?  I have this problem with a lot of combos, where one of the attacks doesn't work.

For some of the combos it requires very specific timing, others you have to do dam fast and some mean linking one move to another e.g hadouken straight into super/ultra. However, I also am struggling with the charge characters combos. I'm fine with other characters, I've completed Sagat, Ken and Ryu's all up to the final hard trial. Any charge character though and there comes a point when I have to charge straight after jumping or whatever and it doesn't come out quick enough

I hear you man, I'm having trouble with some of the 4th level but I think some of my problems has to do with the fact I'm using the Xbox pad. I can do alright online cause I don't use a lot of combos, but those trial things can be a pain. I know I'm never going to get all of them.

For that combo, make sure that you are holding back as soon as you leave the ground for the jump-in. This is the only way you'll be able to charge long enough to throw the SB after the sc.FP hits.

To learn the timing, crouch near your opponent for a couple of second to charge a SB. When you have one ready, release "down" while you keep holding "back," press FP and then slide into your SB while the FP animation is going. It's not about going fast, per se, but getting the timing right. Keep doing it until you've got the rhythm down. Muscle memory will eventually kick in, and you'll be all set.
