Rainbow or C-rail?

So I've got a bent pipe. I can either have a 5 foot high rainbow or a c-rail, which one will be better. Keep in mind that this is for my yard, and I will be hitting it a lot.

Well, it's 5 feet high, but not very steep, so it would prolly make a pretty big c-rail.

i'd go for the c-rail. you can do so much more off of them.

if your going to hit it a whole bunch you stand a chance of nutting yourself once or twice. so to decrease those chances you can make it into a C-rail

of course you'll fall a couple of times. If you are too afraid of falling, you won't progress too much.

but if you don't make a backyard c-rail, you'll never learn how to do them well, then you'll really hurt yourself on the mountain trying one.

Speed is not a problem. And yeah, my yard is amazing. I already have a 23 foot flat rail, a downkink/upkink, and triangle. For next winter I plan on adding a battleship, and a rollercoaster.

rainbow rails are two years ago dude, c rails are last year. gez - get with the times dude. this year commin' up is gonna be all about the launch rails. (wave rails and just straight up uphill straight rail).

And as for the whole gang-bang scenario, it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual. They don't even have reproductive organs under those little white pants. That's what's so illogical, you know, about being a Smurf. What's the point of living if you don't have a dick?

I had 600 feet of old chainlink fence in my yard. It was so old that the piping at the top was steel and not that shitty aluminum stuff. If you sand it off its perfect. I've got about 400 feet of piping now and I dont know what to do with it.

make an s rail and an upside down rainbow that goes flat, down, and then up so you launch that bad boy like this.

Make it a c-rail. They are a lot harder then a rainbow and if you will be hitting it a lot, it will definatly improve your rail skills.
