Homemade grind rail

[Dallen.]

My first day on a rail...I never ride rails so I built one to try & learn them. Today I got a few tricks on it..

Here's the plans I used

The video. Edited on my ipad, was testing iMovie. I wish I could slow down clips on it.

Please, I will take criticism, but if you're going to hate, PM me or don't say anything.

I need ideas for new tricks too.

that rail is pretty sweet, I would have made it a round rail tho

learn front lips! there pretty easy

 

[Dallen.]

I thought I did one, you meet feet facing the rail, then jump & put my back end over it & slide?

 

[tyler_magro]

oh i missed it. nvm

 

[Dallen.]

oh i missed it. nvm

It was pretty sketchy. I wanna learn front boards & back lips but every time I try I slide out. Gotta get more comfortable on it first.

if you have a rail at your house, you should just learn every single grind.

Eventually yeah. I want to make sure I learn them right & don't learn bad habits. What are some good starters?

just shred the rail as much as you can. the more comfortable you are on a rail, the easier every grind becomes. try to learn back board/front lip, and front board/back lips. once you can do the whole rail, learn them all to fakie. then try all of your tricks out of them, then try all of your tricks out of them to fakie. then try them all to 270... so on and so forth. once you master a trick, move on to the next grind.

I remember you at KTR ^

 

[William Juniper]

^I love KTR, takes like 2 hours to get there though.

 

[Grant Schofield]

Just learn front board and back lips there pretty much the only grind you need. Try 5050s overcrooks too

 

[Dallen.]

I think I got front boards decently. Can do about a 1/4 of the rail
