Largest Set Ever.

You guys talk about stairsets as if there all the same. There are tons
of different types of stairs, from the steep tall ones, to the short
stretched out ones. I think the only way we could all compare stair
sets is to measure the distance and height.

I mean I've done a 6 set but thats all so far. Can't really find
anything between like a 6-7 to a 10-12. It would be so awesome if I
could find an 8 set!🙄

Into sand, yes.

He recently said he did a 12-set to concrete. No video yet, but I
believe him. He is pretty crazy.

biggest landed is a 13, i think 2 people have done it. i want to find a
reasonable one to do. the ones i have found have insanely tall steps
and have a massive 8-10foot drop(no), are too flat, or have no run up.
for those of you wanting to do bigger sets, you have to work your way
up you you are going to hurt yourself really bad. i have never had a
bad UPD from a big stairset, but i worked my way up. i have had TONS of
UPDS that i was able to run out and one i rolled out of.

also, if i havn't jumped a stairset in a while that is 8 or bigger i go
for a few runs on a 5-7set before i go for anything really big.

oh, and i don't land perfectly straight either, it looks just as good,
and it makes it a ton easier landing, but one thing you do need to
worry about, don't land too sideways... or bye bye rim i bent the
stock 05 dx rim whatever that is and the nimbus rim

Whenever I've missed a landing doing a stair set, i've always bailed
*forward*, and never fallen backward, which *can* mess you up if you
hit your back on a concrete stair! I think because with all the forward
momentum during the stair jump, you're just naturally going to bail in
the same direction that you're jumping. And because I wear a full
compliment of armor including wrist guards, even the worst UPD on a
stair set that caused me to literally fly forward and flat onto the
hard ground, never resulted in so much as a scratch...knock wood!:p

Hugo Duguay does a 10 set in "Loading In Progress"

Yeah, that one 10 set...the length was the same as the height, about
10" but the problem was that the run up had only places to do 2
revolutions. First time I tried it, the back of my wheel hitted the
last stair, then tried it again and got it...

But I prefer much more doing tricks down sets (3 to 6...even if I'll
try a 360 9 stairs soon...). It's less hard on equipments and yourself.
Jumping down big sets is stupid...I'm quiting :p Anyways, there's no
more stairs set higher then 10 left here...

I also like jumping up them...I'm at 5 (real) stairs right now, but I
don't think it's physically possible to jump higher then 5, except if
the stairs are really low...Except Xav, did anyone else rolled up (or
side hopped) a 6 ?

I'm the thread killer !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a little add...

I'm pretty sure Shaun mentioned he did a shifty 11 set and I guess
Kelly H. tried the 11 set normally before trying to flip it...I
hope...

Oh I'd also like to know what is the biggest stairs set someone 180
double flipped...my guess is Kelly Hickman, 4 but not sure...

Nope. I talked to him when I rode with him after the video came out. He
said it never crossed his mind to just jump it. He also said he thinks
jumping sets is scarier than flipping them. I think he's insane.😄

kelly, you are weird, but shiftys are easy. i do them over everything.
i usually do a shifty tire grab when i do a stairset, it gives me
something to do while im in the air.

actually, if you have something to do in the air it makes it a ton
easier cuz you concentrate on that instead of flying 8 feet off the
ground.
