gap?
 

a gap is a jump between 2 things, areas, whatever. it originated as a
skating term. It's usually used for talking about 2 raised objects with
a hole in between, like the GIANT gap in the beginning of the defect
trailer.

Your gap distance is the distance you can hop sideways. Pretty much
just what Fuego said, I just decided to add that as well....

I dunno who it was, i think it might have been him. I didn't know you
could go that fast on a 20"!

I think it was a combination of speed, skill, and wires like they used
in the matrix to hold people up.

EDIT: :D

that means doing a gap to something that is at the same height you are
startig from. gapping to something higher than where you start from
requires more power, and gapping to something lower than where you start
requires less power.

starting from.

I thought jumping or dropping 'to flat' meant having a horizontal
landing surface (like a road or pavement). jumping or dropping 'to
slope' is where you land on an angle like a hill or skate ramp. You can
drop further to slope than to flat since the force is distributed
downwards as well as sideways as you roll out of it.

Loose.
