Which type of rail is the best?

[tylerbillman]

I'm looking to purchase a rail to have in my dorm to ride while I'm at college, and I want something that's taller than the average baby rail stores sell, what kinds are the best?

I was looking at this:

...but am wondering if there is anything else out there that's better? Opinions? Experiences? Please tell me about them.

my friend used to have that rail, but he always left it at my house, so it was basically mine. it was like whatever. it needed wax from time to time, and it would move around if you didnt land on it right. i would just make your own rail. it would be much less expensive too.

 

[GMscoot]

that looks pretty good but I would just make your own. it's cheaper and you can make it how you want it.

Good points. Thanks guys.

Look at the fresh park rail. Ive never used the element rail and it ls cool because of how wide it because it basically a mini box, but i could see that being annoying to because everything would be so easy. The frsh park one is a little skinny but can get really high

Actually now that i think about it the freshpark one has rounded edges so 5050 and such will be harder

I can 5050 short and completely circular round rails, so I'm actually looking for a way to step my skills up since I have no slightly taller round rails around me while at college. That's the rail I was looking for, thanks for giving me a concrete name Grant.

Order metal from here: airpartsinc.com. Cheapest metal online that you can get and then go to somewhere that welds and get it welded up. I bet you could easily get a nice rail for 50 bucks.


Edit. The element rail is really good too. I rode it at a lock-in for like 3 hours and was still not bored.

Element rail is the funnest thing ive ever ridden. Id love to have one.

I want a round rail, flat rails are stupid.

coems with non sliders so it doesnt move at all and three heights

 

[Bear Grylls]

my friend has a huge flat one thats heavy as fuck. Heavy is good, so fun to ride

The fresh park ones that i've seen are bowed down, because the metal isn't not thick enough.

 

[Grant Schofield]

You might have a hard time 5-0ing that fresh park one too. But its probably the best rail

 

[JCott]

i myself have a mojo rail and its pretty good. but my friend have an element rail and i think they are by far the best. theyre at a good height and easy to set, plus theyre sturdy and dont slide around. also dont be afraid of the thickness, its not too easy or anything its perfect!

 

[Robert]

I had this ten eighty rail, I think it was 40 bucks, and its pretty nice, but it's round.

I ride Rampage rails. BITCH!

 

[Kyle]

Razor punk rail is by far the best.

 

[J SWEETS]

element and freshparks are the two best.
freshpark beats the element though cause its got rounded square edges.

I got a rail that's four and a half feet long and 8 inches high at kmart...it was going out of business and like 70% and I got it for 14 dollars haha. Definitely get a bigger one then that

The element rail is amazing. Light enough to carry with one hand and extremely durable, by all means get it.
