i dont think u could back onto a urban rail..cuz the momentum u get from spinning a back would just keep going when u hit the rail and ud just slip off and hit ur head..maybe u could do it if u were crazy but i duno

i like the way tanner is taking urban. dont get me wrong. spinning the shit out of rails and millions of switch ups is hard, but a rediculously smooth nollie lip onto a dfd with absolutely no movement is the shit. and his presses, seriously we need more presses. if someone could tail press an entire dfd i would marry them

are urban rails like the railing that are on stairs like at malls and schools and stuff, cause i don't really believe skiers can do that. I have a railing in my house, and I live in a city, so it's urban, but I havne't seen anybody slide it, so you must be lying about this so called progression.

This is what i think of as progression, or maybe all eight slides (lip reg, lip unnnat, reg, and unnat and their switch counterparts) or even all 4 270's on, that would be sick

i would say his nollie lips are pretty damn good. his straight nollies are sick for sure. either way hes talking them in a direction no one seems to be going.

his presses are the hugest i agree. but once again, you dont see many people try to press urban rails. his nose on the wood ledge was quality and some of the tails on the dfds were good.

any ways i was just saying how i like how tanner, and whoever seems to be doing presses and stylie tech stuff, seems to be going with urban. switch ups and spinning are cool and hard, but i prefer the more subtle things in life

theres 2 ways you can see it....270 onto urban with a large jump= hardly diff than park but you need tto start somewhere in urban 270s. then theres like 270ing on with a reg jump that you would hit urban with=likea 6in jump

presses arent that hard and spins on are mad gettho to do on decent urban set ups.

I dont think a nollie lipslide should reallyu be consiederated as a nollie since the way you have to raise the tail if you use both legs to jump at the same time will make it look like a nollie anyway. Unless someone can make it look like the tails arent on the ground like 2-3 feets before he hit the jump, it isnt a nollie. it's just a fake one
