Urban Rails ruin skis?

So I've asked this before, but it was in the middle of another thread.
Questing is: Will urban rail ruin your fresh K2 Domain skis, IF the Rail is perfectly shaped with no sharp edges or whatever that might crack your ski surface open and there is snow around it, so that I won't land on concrete?

I have tried to get my hands on some used skis, but it's rather hard where I'm from since I don't live in a ski society.

I suck so I don't know how display the image...

jeg tror, jeg kan tage fejl, men jeg tror at jibberino blot ville hjælpe, så måske du skulle holde lidt igen med de grove gloser :-)

anyways. Dræb den rail godt og grundigt! - den ser god ud, og landingen bliver efter min mening ikke det store nemesis for dine ski :)

wax is basically a less efficient solid oil and the principle behind putting wax on a rail is the same as motor oil in an engine. thats all. i never brought up putting motor oil on a rail, i just said that wax is to a rail as motor oil is to an engine. so yes, i do have an understanding of how wax works both on a molecular scale and firsthand because you can slide the rustiest stickiest rail as long as you throw some wax on it first. no wax would = death just as no oil in an engine would result in a burnt and seized wreck. see what i'm getting at?
