I love stairs. If you dont' like it,then just don't do it. Everyone has their own style of skating.

Some of my mates egg me on while I'm riding BMX and it gives me confidence which usually helps. As for skating.. I just like the feeling of accomplishment. That's why I do it.

i love(d) stairs but they scare the shat outta me. i love doin them, and i love how it feels when you finally are like 'okay.. this time.' on like ur 8th try and you land it and roll away like 'hell yah!' and then go try it again knowing you can do it. (but if your like me.. you'll accidentally land in a rose bush and get all cut up by the thorn thigns.. ahh!) anywho... do what you think you can do. i havn't done things cause i 1. dont' wanna get hurt for soccer. 2. fear paralisis.. and 3. know i should wait..

be you, do what u do, be you, nothings better, dr.pepper

I hate stair sets and **** off massive drops, its not massive but this ledge killed me...I broke 3 toes and fractured the bridge of my foot...

ouch. The more speed the less impact. That is from a scientific point of veiw. I know more speed makes it scarier but when you land you have more force going foward and it takes off the force going down, Just a tip!

Stairs are fun when you can do them. If for some reason I can't land off some set I get stressed. Plus I hate that scared feeling I get every time I roll up to ollie them.

Stairs are wicked fun dude. It feels so cool when you get fat air. C'mon man you gotta like stairs....Personally, my faves are gaps dude!

iamflameboy: i totally know the feeling dude, just like going full speed off a 12 set feels like you are in the sky.

mikejl29: i know you are mod and can probably have me killed, but dude, hop off the bmx. its like having an 8 inch dildo between your legs, something im not down for.

im down for hubbas and ledges. rails are kinda scary, all i have done on a round rail is board slide, but ive done way more on this square one.

I love stairs cause there are many ways of doing the little *****, you either go fast and kida roll down them( I think a normal size of 7 is the last thing you can roll down). Or you can just practice your ollie, not making them huge but making them go forward, that's what you use when there is no runway... Or I just love the feeling of seeing the stairs down and wonder if I'm going to hit the last one when I land... It's great. Then flipping stairs is totally different and great at the same time. I enjoy flipping 10s + cause stairs are just fun.

They are fun cause they are a huge ass drop and a set of stairs at the same time... I just wish I had a Big 4 around here.

i find stairs fun. the largest and only set ive cleared so far is a 4. but i havent tried anything bigger but one time, i got one run on a 5 set and bailed. i found it a bit frustrating about a month ago when i first tried the set, then i didnt try it anymore until like last week and landed it first try. its fun.

stairs are fun because your in the air and then you see the last stair and you think your gonna die but you dont hit the last stair and your like WHOOAA

yeah its just kinda scary when doing something you havent landed yet. its like you think you are just gonna fall. when im doing big drops though i get that cool feeling in my stomach like i just drop all the sudden and its like i fly its just alot of fun.
