Hint: Get past projectile without jumping:
Use the following trick to get past projectiles without jumping as Ryu or Ken. Just as the projectile hits you, do either a LP or MP Shoryuken or Hurricane Kick. You will fly past the projectile. This works with most characters, for example Adon's Tiger Kick, Sagat's Tiger Knee, Guy's Whirlwind Kick, and Akuma's Hurricane Kick. This technique works when opponents try to make you jump into their attack.
