its scary until you hit it. start out small, but eventually it comes down to your confidence level high enough to hit the rail. once you hit it the first time and bail out, it completely eliminates how scary it was (thats for me at least)
Huck it. Go 100%, anything less will end up with you getting dicked and more injured than just hucking it.
Cool story
But to the OP, you HAVE to get on top of it. If not, its sketchy, looks retarted, feels retarted, and is just gay. And is 10x scarier/harder.
and watch your front peg if you have one. I learned that lesson on 2 different 7 stair rails lol
