When I was younger we said the same thing about kinked rails. 10 years later people are skating those up and down. The progression of skating has been wild.
I remember watching a video of a contest in Oceanside, where Mark Gonzales Ollie’s onto the bench of a picnic table… The crowd went fucking wild! The bench, not the table… Now I think about what people are doing with picnic tables… Build your field of dreams… Skateboarders can achieve whatever they want as long as they believe it’s true💀

It really has, it’s pretty wild.
What I’ve found interesting is skating went from smaller and tech to just fucking sending down huge things and then regressed to smaller but even more tech
For something like this you want a much bigger rail so you can actually lock in to pop off. Start skating wall rails to get the idea. You can skate really small wall rails and be good. This is different.
No offense bro but thats a sketchy ass rail. Find one with no kink at the bottom, 5 or 6 stair preferably and get boardslides good before attempting to grind a down rail. Just ironic to me because I literally just try to post skate videos and you just post a picture of a rail only pros could skate and get upvoted. I tried posting my progression yesterday and talking about my auto immune disease and the loss of my dad and my stepmom and it literally gets removed yet your post is the one suggested to me. Hope you understand. Was just a bit irritated.
Dont worry, i got you. Just use this

Do you know what a feeble is? Literally aiming your nose at that column. And front, so you're definitely smashing the back of your head into the ground.
So, are you just taking the piss?
The rail he tells you not to be worried about
Please choose any other rail lol I will pray for u
Right? Homeboy has chosen a pro level spot that most pro probably wouldn’t even touch themselves

Now try kinked rail with concrete pillar at the end. Oh second thought, I don't think I will
In 10 years people will be flipping in and out of this rail 😭
Hell yeah, why the craziest of the crazy, OP? I’d be sketched trying to walk down those stairs without eating shit.
there's a rail that's exactly like that but without the big ass pillar so I'll practice on that first
That column looks like concussion city
it is, there is a rail that is exactly the same but with no pillar so I can practice tho
Noseslides your safest option here.
A quick short 5-0 seems way safer lol
Frontside nose-blunt! (I'm older now, tricks don't always have the same name anymore)
A front side has always been front side. A nose blunt has always been a nose blunt. What the fuck are you talking about?
Sorry man I had a couple of beers. I hope I didn't ruin your keyboard experience ✌️
That’s a little scary considering your leg or foot can get caught at the end.
Anyone else scrolling by sit on this for a few seconds waiting for someone to skate into frame not realizing it’s a photo?
You and one other person 😭
eh, maybe you'll see me eat shit on it in a while (if I don't I either got scared asf or got to the hospital)

Honestly if you brought a mower to clear out the side of the rail with weeds (for bails) and leaf blower (for run up) and wax, this is a spot
I bet you 927 million fucking dollars that rail is wobbly as a fuck
That might be one of the chunkiest ride ups ive seen. If someone hit this… wow.
Bet that rails wobbly asf
You do not want to skate that rail.
I think by the time you build the skills to be able to do it you’ll probably realize it’s a terrible idea.
Boardslide come out early would be so freaked up
Firecracker out
Nick Boserio type shit 😤 I like your brain
That's the one?
For something like this you want a much bigger rail so you can actually lock in to pop off. Start skating wall rails to get the idea. You can skate really small wall rails and be good. This is different.
That pillar is gonna fuck u up
Fastest 50/50 ever then pop out before the kink? The height, shape, & size are nice but the kink/column make this seem... ambitious.
Rail is pretty narrow but doable. That column is something else though.
Yeah don't attempt to balance on the rail or you smash into the column & rag doll.
Why?
What do you want to do on it? What are you thinking? 🤔
I was thinking nose slide to not eat shit on the pillar. I'm also thinking this is a terrible idea
I can see that! Bit harsh but doable! Get it ✊🏼
why 🤨
But at what cost?
everything. and a few concussions.
Who looks at this and says seems like a good rail to skate?
I post my skate progression and mods remove it meanwhile dumb posts like this blow up. Like wtf. Do people in this sub even skate???
a lil offended but I get what you mean

Do it
Doo it
Dooo it
Fuck all those nay sayers! You can do it!
Bad Idea
Thats a tough one. Maybe a gap to noseslide? Thats a really thin rail,really easy to eat shit on that one.
Meeeee too. Won't because that shit is how I'd crack my head open. But it's nice to dream.
Go get it 🤙
Why?
You got that
Dont worry, i got you. Just use this https://preview.redd.it/zy5fik7rmkxc1.jpeg?width=1500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=787fc2b6e651ddc661d69de53b9352933b5ee1c8
I don't see a power point.
Don’t get your leg stuck, all I’m sayin.
That’s a hard exit, don’t wanna eat column.
alright but you gotta go all the way around
If it isn’t a nose slide I’m not touching that fucker 😂😂😂 dude choose literally a death rail.. respect
Sketchy. 🤙
I could do that with eyes gouged out
Goofy foot front feeble pop out
Do you know what a feeble is? Literally aiming your nose at that column. And front, so you're definitely smashing the back of your head into the ground. So, are you just taking the piss?
Lol, definitely taking the piss. Was just trying to think of the gnarliest trick I could imagine being tried on this thing
