Stuck on Sleet Island: Danger! / Even the winds.. (solved)

On Sleet Island there's a small two block island in the South East which is clearly part of the "Danger!" puzzle. It has a small altar with what looks like an egg on it. I feel like I have the right solution to the puzzle, but I think it might be bugged. What I'm attempting to do is:
Use the Danger! teleporter to the other small room. Press the button so that the three teleporters appear. Since I can't seem to run fast enough to reach the third I throw a rock into the second one, which presses the Danger! floor plate again, and brings the teleporters back. Entering the third teleporter this way popped up the "Secret found" message, but just dropped me back where I was. It seems like the exit for that teleporter is blocked, and so I just get kicked back out.
Perhaps I'm on the wrong track, but seeing the message pop up has led me to believe that this could be a bug. Can anyone confirm one way or another? If I'm doing it wrong then just let me know.
Thanks all!

In the small room don't wait for the teleporters to disappear and enter the left one right away
The reward is also quite nice

The exit isn't blocked, if i had to guess what was happening it's that your characters are trying to move forward after they teleport through, run into a wall, and end up in the teleporter again so they're sent back through. If you try it a few more times and just be careful about how long you hold the movement keys you should be able to get it.
Also an easier way to get to the 3rd teleporter is to just stand where the 2nd teleporter spawns and throw something from there, then you can just move over and enter the 3rd.

Well I managed to do it by
standing on the teleporter spot and throwing the rock
. I think my solution definitely doesn't work.
Thanks

I'm fairly sure this is a bug; if you place a rock on the teleporter and activate it, it is instantly teleported back.
Also, the teleporter exit faces towards water (pressure plate side), not towards a dead end, as I've noticed when trying to time it so that I go through just as the teleport field expires.
If anyone has a consistent way to solve this puzzle, I'd love to hear about it

I think the way I did it in the end is consistent:
Step on the danger plate and note the location of the teleporter north of it. Move to this location and turn to face the danger plate. Throw something on to the danger plate to be teleported to the room. Sidestep left and forwards to move to the small island.

Thanks, that worked. Weird.
