OK people, please vote again even if you voted in the last one. Read
carefully. We're talking about jumping up stairs in one hop.

Im at about 2 up in ONE hop. Im getting good at doing several stairs in
a row. Going down I just bounce off one, then the next, and keep
going... Sometimes I bounce in place a bit. Stairs are great pratice
for hopping, no doubt.

Hopping is cheating. Real men roll up stairs. ;)

...and JC rolls them backwards.


Steps vary in height and width. I have made three once but can almost
always make two. Needless to say the three set I did was comprised of
comparatively short and narrow steps.

Pretty much any 3. A lot of 4's. It is hugely dependant on the stairs
though.

Normally i can only do 1 buut i managed to do two one time at
school:cool: It does really depend on the shape of the step but if i
was hopping up a small step prob two. So im talking about average
steps:D

If you clear them and you are on a unicycle, I think it counts.

Rolling hop is the way to clear stairs, but side hopping works too. When
you get to 5+ stairs, I think you almost have to rolling hop, due to
the distance AND hight....
