i can do it both ways but lately ive been doing it sideways because ive lost my nerve. basically is is easier to do it rolling or sideways? and which way would allow you to clear the most?
for me i can clear more rolling.
also, i think it looks way better rolling.
static hopping works till you start doing stuff bigger than 5 or 6 stairs(at least for me)
also, rolling seems alot smoother and easier to use better technique with.
I can side hop 8 sets.
Thats actually how I first did a 8-set was a sidehop, because it was part of the trials line.
Rolling is best though, you can more foward momentum to carry you over larger sets of stairs.
rolling hops for sure, I can do an 8 set sidehopping, but I cleared a 9 set without enough run up rolling. It is much better to do it rolling, considering that you can hop MUCH farther rolling
rolling sidehops are also a viable option for clearing stairs, thats how I did my first 6 set.
