Whats the general feeling on the slow rail style? I think the Zack Davidson's segment in booter is slick when he slides that urban c at like .0005 miles an hour.

Flat rails at a slight down slope are mad fun to slide slow... theyre the easiest to do it on. I cant imagine it on urban.

If you are on a slippery enough rail/box it would be easy. If it were sticky or sketchy then its tough.

the slower the better, but not to slow. there is a fine line between slow and too slow.

i do that sometimes depending on the rail and my friend james does on every rail. even if its a 6 foot gap to the rail. he hits the jump straight then lands on the rail with one foot then the other as if he stepped on. sketchy but super sick

Yes, and then slow to stop... Which then results in a really fun act of balancing resulting in a nutting.

if you can do 2 switch ups on a 10 foot rail, thats about as slow as you can go without making it look lame
