Take a look at my reply, we're doing the same damn thing!
It's probably rather common.

Lol, my legs do the same thing though while dropping. So a small variation on it :D
An other variation would be to keep your feet in a 45° and then keep doing and landing on every stair edge
Never seen someone else doing that, it's insanely fast if you can master it :D

Did that in my childhood on wooden stairs in my parents house. Rounded edges, kid of hazardous in general but great to slide down like this. Kind of want to try this again, but I also value the integrity of my bones.

Stair surfing - I've still done it as a middle aged guy.
I would like to learn to do it hands free, one foot in front of the other (forward and down to the next step). I can surf a bit without grabbing the rails, but only rarely make it to the bottom. Definitely needs the perfect wooden stairs to get maximum flight time!
You have to land on the edge of the stair below so you "drop", then rinse and repeat.
If you do it constantly, you only have to support your body ( but you use your weight to fall, so don't support it too much) and slide with your hands.
If you can't do it the first time, land with your foot normally and then always turn them slightly to go to the stairs below
Kinda hard to explain
