Doing stairs do they hurt?

drop gaps like stairs are hugely important to be able to ride and learn tricks over to round yourself out as a rider.

ya pain is just mental, you can block it out, well until it pinches a nurv and you cant walk

if your scooter doesn't dissolve under you when you land, and if you dont die, you should be okay.

jk. sometimes you might get hurt trying new stuff but eventually youll get it. no pain no gain.

sucks. the t-tube should fit in some of the older forks, so you just cut it off at the top so it looks good. but the newer forks dont allow the t-tube to fit in. i put a handle bar in it and just massive amounts of tape. should work

Only thing I could add, is concentrate on keeping both feet on the deck, imagine them glued to it. It sucks to land on top of your panic foot...

If you are just jumping a stair it is not that often that you will land on your own foot. while learning them take your foot off if you have to. but if things feel good then have confidence and leave your feet on.
