I did 11 stairs back in the 90s.  Small change by todays standards I know, but I was chuffed   :)

Dead Vince did a twoset in Romford which consisted of a dodgy curved runup, a small hop in then a bloody great big hop down two flights of about 12, then directly into the subway wall......   I was looking at it the other day - massive and unbelievable   :4_17_5:
