How to dodge the Cyclops snakes

journey

So I'm at the part of the game where you start seeing the giant flying stone cyclops snakes with searchlights. I've been almost totally unable to dodge them, and they eat my scarf when they hit me.

What can I do to get past these unscathed? I'm having particular trouble in the snowy area, where I don't have any jump power and can't move very fast.

The only winning move is not to play. Watch their patrols and hug the walls where their searchlights don't go as often. Once you get spotted by the search light, they will likely catch you unless you're in the last section where you're surfing down the middle as fast as possible. It is possible to get through it without losing the part of your scarf, but it's mostly stealth.

In the snowy area, you should utilize cover and only move out from under cover when no snakes are approaching.
