I just wanted to see if most people felt more comfortable on rails or jumps. I definatly feel way more comfortable on rails (and that was before i had hit a summer set up). and im so much more afraid of hitting jumps and trying tricks in the air

hard decision. both have different feelings for me but I'd say jumps are easier for me, rails i can get but are tricky

it really depends on the trick, I mostly feel more comfortable on rails, but I don't necessarily feel uncomfortable on jumps.

rails, cuz on the Ice Coast the jumps are deformed and scary looking. Plus i feel awkward in the air. I would trade my rail skills for jump skills anyday. East Coasters are notorious for sucking at jumps, but slaying rail and vise versa for the West

I love jumps so much, and rails are really fun too. I just like to float more though.

Jumps. But if it's icy I'll spend time on rails, even though I'm pretty bad at them.

Idk I think ti depends where you ride and what you like more. If you like something and truly enjoy doing it you won't be as afraid of it.

thats what i was going to say. I'm more comfy on boxes/rails than on jumps or cliffs, but if i could i would love to be good at cliffs and jumps, especially into pow.
