yeah i think he's talking about those weird shaped rails all over house decks... im sure you can slide them, the only metal rails ive ever had a problem sliding are fucking aluminum rails. whoever had the idea to make aluminum rails can burn in hell

um, of coarse you can do it. you can do basically any rail. i know a kid who did a 50' rail in the parkinglot of squaw and had to jump over the chains that they put on it to prevent kids from doing it

i know people who have done them. the sturdiness (probably not a word) is often an issue i think and also it seems like those things rust and stuff pretty easily. but if you've got one that's smooth and not wobbly, go for it.
