i think theyre easier on a round rail. Everytime I try on a flat rail it just sticks and i fall.

My girlfriend told me to shove my skis up my ass

personally i think 50/50s on boxes look sorta fruity because boxes are wide and it isnt that much of a challenge. but everyone has their own preference and style, so if ya like it, do it.

switch 5050 would be so tech!!!! im sure itll come up soon enough.. just as fastslides on handrails and nosepresses on boxes will show up sooner or later too.

can any of you actually do 50-50's? I can 50-50 blue mt. rainbow, but i think it looks better when i 50-50 up and then railslide down the backside. Also, fastslides are really hard, you have to stay way forward, but its cool cause everybody is amazed when i do one, cause hardly anyone can

ya... u get into railslide with back foot lifted and front foot on... its not as hard as you'd think cause people usually have their weight centered well when they do fastslides... its like you put ur weight forward a bit but not too much because your scared of catching edge so its naturally ok.

looks nice to sag your one leg over to side, then midway jump to railslide, like mike d does down the wooden rail in happy dayz. its real easy to do it on a box rail.
