^ i think he means loop-de-loop, as in goes upside down. its probably possible, just you'd lose so much speed during the loop that youd have to be going like 60 to make it and at that speed the compression at the start would be killer.

i want to see somebody slide a rail that drops to another rail pointing the opposite direction. that would be sooooo ill. so if you looked at it from the side, there would be a rail going downward to the left, then drops to a rail going downward to the right. how dope would that be...

i'd also like to see someone hit a nice big quad kink... d-f-d-f-d and on the second kind (the end of the flat part) they gap the next down/flat and slide the last down.

i had a dream the other nite where i was at a mad park and there were heaps of rails, but there was a quarter pipe box: it was like little kicker, gap, then it was flat into a quater then like a flat-down-flat but hell smooth, so ud go up the quater, stall, then flow off the back. it would be awesome if someone built it.

it has to be possible becasue of the fact the bob burnquest (I DONT KNOW HOW TO SPELL HIS LAST NAME) did it skateboarding, and you would be the exact same way on skizzles becasue you are sideways on rails like how u ride on a skate....

i think in two or three years, they gonna be doin it.

but i see two possibilities of this rail:

1) from the side: it is a complete circle, maybe longer on the ground parts.

from above: the part of the rail, where you hit it, is on the right, and the end part is on the left, enough space inbetween to grease it without loosin your skis.

2) from the side: its not a complete circle, maybe around 300 degrees. there is no flat part. you hit it, come around all the way and land on the same place where you started. This could also be done with a whole circle, so the skier jumps off the rail after one turn.

from above: just straight, maybe 5 inch difference from the start to the end, to make it easier to ride it out.

yea, he looped a full pipe too, but it isn't the same, he wasn'tgrinding a rail when he did a loop on a skateboard, and in this case on skis you would be, so you have to put balancing the rail into consideration...

hmm i think it'd have to be a pretty wide box, but i think ppl could like 50-50 it...

one thing i really want to see is 360s over the flat on trapezoid rails, could you imagine how incredibly sick it would be to hit the up, spin a saftey 3 and then land on the dow? i think i would get a boner if i saw that... i want to try it but theres nowhere around here with a trap box

any one who said it is possible in this thread are stupid as if it is possible, it would have to be one huge loop, and any body know of any1 who would be crazy enough to even do it

if it were easier it would be called snowboarding
