I'd love to have a rail like that. The kind of rail people dont say "Wow what a cool 9 stair rail, or 14 or 12". Its the kind of rail you'd just have to say, "Wow what a masive rail!"

I know I can do both the 11 and the 13, and I'm sure next time we go to the 11 I'll try it, because you know, I've changed I mean, I'm much more confidant when trying anything now.

roll hop or sidehop, if you have roll hopped 9 or bigger you can sidehop as long as you have not sidehopped a 9 or bigger before

So then if you haven't roll hopped a 9, then you can just do that? Then this is really not just a side hop comp, but rolling as well. Confusing. Should be one or the other imo.

Well, that 8 set I did a while back was scary enough when I rolling hopped it; now you've given me the incentive to try to side hop it, static! I think I can clear it with my new trials uni! We'll see.

when i sidehopped my biggest stairset i went from 8 and jumped off each higher stair until i reached the top (it was an 11, i think that's the most sidehopped so far)

Maybe... But would be hard to roll out of. I can imagine not rolling out and breaking something very easily.

Yeah I know. I tried a 7 foot drop off of a tractor onto the sand at the beach. Can't roll out when you instantly sink 5" on impact! But it was definitely a soft landing compared to landing on flat concrete from almost that high! (See my avatar!)
