how do you hit urban rails with the little kinks on the end. are they harder to come off of or is it just as easy.

theyre definitely annoying but you hardly even feel them. no one's ever fallen because of one... the problem i have with them is (since i think one of the most important things on a rail is how you get off) the way they make it less smooth as you come off the rail, especiallya steep one.

if theyre a decent size it makes it way easier to spin out.

youve seriously seen someone fall solely because of a little tiny kink at the end of the rail?

of course people have fallen people fall on reg kinks they expect or even on a reg basic down rail so its obviously false to say no one has ever fallen because of one. if youre aware of em they arent too bad. if they are subtle and kinda long like ar5180 said they can help you spin of ALOT because of increase pressure under ur skis, which is alos why its easier to spin off up rails then down rails
