don't use gas if you are going to do it. Use rubbing alcohol. And when most people do it they put on some fire retardant

the keystone barbaque rail actually has propane that flows through it for that purpose. i dont think they just dump gas on it and light it.

first, how do you sneak gas onto a ski hill? after you manage that how do you start a fire with out someone being like "THAT RAIL IS ON FIRE!!!"? this is gonna be a failed operation.

good luck with gasoline, it doesnt burn as easily as the movies make you think they do.

def use alcohol, itll burn easier and itll all evaporate quickly so if you do decide to actually do this you wont light the rest of the rail on fire... and make sure you get the hell outta there quickly because theyll call the cops on you at most mountains for a stunt like that

gasoline. seriously.

think this through. WD40 or like vodka yeah, but waht are you serious? gasoline. you make napalm out of it. its entire purpose is to explode.

gasoline is very explosive so it will burn up very quick. If you have access to diesel its a bit harder to light but once it gets going it burns for a good while. One note is dont fall on the rail, you will get set on fire for sure

haha imagine what the ski patrol would say if you like skied up to them and you were on fire, but they DIDNT know about the rail

"what the hell happened to you, kid?!?!"

"Um, i dont know. spontaneous combustion maybe?"

yes, it is a much better idea to set yourself on fire, then do the rail.
mad props for that

1) Fire Repellent is a good thing to have
2) If you do eat shit... you're on a mountain of snow. Roll around a bit
