So I’m looking to do a skipless run, is jumping over the railing from 2nd to first floor in west arcade considered a skip?

Wondering after watching a couple run, neither of which did the jump.

Hey, so I am wondering if anyone else is having an issue where the splitter starts with the clock of the game, but then just never stops? I recently just had to redownload all my stuff on my comp so not sure if I just have some settings wrong.
