Arrow Basic Big Street Skills-what can YOU do?

I'm trying to keep it simple... no tricks here... maybe throw in your best trick that you're proud of doing down stairs or gapping over or something?
DOWN:
stairs rolling
stairs static
Drop

UP
Stairs static SIF
Stairs static SI
stairs rolling

Rails-Grinding
distance on rail, with # of stairs if appliccable

GAP
-distance
-massiveness-flat ground is just so restricting sometimes... include picture or video with a time reference.

But big street with no tricks is so boring though!

I can crankflip around 2m in length, and around 75cm up. I can also lateback about as far as I can crankflip.

DOWN:
stairs rolling: probably 5. I don't try big ones because I don't want to break anything. Upgrade coming soon perhaps.
stairs static: Uh...3(?)

UP:
I can't really jump SIF. Yesterday I was doing rolling side hops up two big stairs with ease. 3 seems so much harder though.

No rails.

GAP
-distance: Never measured. Maybe 4 feet(That's being generous).

I disagree, especially since I can't do tricks.

Steps are quite a subjective measurement. I have some steps across the street from my house that are bigger than any other steps that I have ever hopped on, but it's hard to communicate how big they really are. Maybe we should make a system of measuring steps using only one number. That would be cool.
