Why is it cool to slide a rail? It took me literally five minutes in the gravel in my back yard to learn. Enlighten me.

ok, what rail did you do, a 5 foot straight rail. because you didn't do the Swirly (Squaw) or the 80ft C mike nick does in prapaganda (troy, NY). do a good rail, then talk

Rails are way harder than jumps. anyone can make it over a jump, and a lot of people cant even slide rails. now, when you start throwing tricks, and going bigger, jumps get more challanging than rails. but yeah, they are so fun.

I prefer rails to jump
it's just fun to do
and spining out or on or switching up is some good challenge...
and try some kinked rail or c or s-rail that's a little bit different than a flat rail way much fun

Why not?

It is another aspect of skiing. And as many have sait, it is a lot of fun and there are a lot of things to try and learn on rails. The possibilities are almost endless.

y ski switch? i learned to do it in like 5 min.
(sarcasm)
seriously, being able to slide a rail and sliding rails sweet rails with style, and getting technical on them is mcuh harder. just like being able to land and take off switch off of big jumps and in the pipe is much harder than riding switch down a green circle at 5mph

Yeah, hell, I learned to ski in 5 minutes; anyone can learn something quickly, but it takes a ton of time and practice to get technical and to master. Your argument can be used in almost every aspect of life.

Rails are so much different in the city than in the park. park rails aren't that great, but if you go and set up a hand rail. its sketchy, its gnarly, and there's consequence. Its just something else really cool, and fun.

every little thing u learn opens up new possibilities. u dont slide a rail just to slide the same rail the same way over and over; just like hitting jumps, u try new ones and learn new things.

its a chalange. its somthing that there will always be another harder rail to try and master, and once you get a rail that youve tried 40 times befor unsucessfully, its such a good feeling. thats why i do rails, the chalange.

See Armada that to me is like the woprst comeback ever its like 'Hey your a fucking loser I spent so much more time on the internet then you!!Ha got ya bitch!' and no its a 20 ft rail thats and inch and a half thick and took more like 25 minutes and we have no snow, and people that like rails over jumps are generally just weaker, kinda depending but cha whatever.

Wow. Some of you are ridiculous. So far the best answer has been because its fun. Aside from that we got kids on here saying 'because you didnt do the 80 foot whatever that a professional skier does in a ski movie.' No shit he fuckin didnt. He said he just learned how and didn't see what was FUN about it. Not that he was some allstar at it and fuckin owns, and then some of you go off on him saying that its because he didnt do a good rail. did YOU slide the 80 foot C that Mike Nick slides? Didn't think so.

Again, best answer: cause its fun. Not because you can do a 450 off.

We'll have you dead pretty soon.

^i see ur point about weak responses, but the kid also said, 'i learned in like 5 min.' he makes it sound like he knows all there is to know about rails, when in reality he has no idea. he also seems to look down on rails and think they are really easy, so talking about 450s and 80ft Cs is in fact relevant

Its the challage of it, skiing down a nicely groomed slope isnt fun and starting to become boring doing it switch. Look at this vid, some of those things dont happen after a day of skiing, its the fear, and all the other things that go along with it that make it fun

you're all wrong! When you grind a rail, the sounds of the vibrations is heard through all native ears...Which cause them to start a pow wow. so it helps us out and gets us to grow our population of natives 'native'
