Does any body know of any good urban rails to hit in or near corvallis?

Also is there an ice rink or other source of snow to hit an urban rail?

I can't wait long enough for this season to start and go to school at OSU. If anyone knows of an ice rink that is close that'd be sick

Yeah I called that place it is just a roller rink. Good for a saturday night rollerblade session, but not an urban session. Closest place I have found is in Eugene.

Is there anyone who goes to OSU and has hit an urban rail?

Hey I just read all the replies and I don't know of anything either. I'm workin on somethin with a friend of mine that will at least keep me occupied and fresh. Its still rough but its more or less a transportable/adjustable rail and box that can be broken down to a small size. As for the snow thing, we are working to try and find somethin kinda like art. turf that skis will slide on. So basically, find a hill, role out the carpet, and adjust the rail to the hill. Its not pretty but its better than nothin at all.

it is not that cool and i haven't used it yet. just built it but it is about four feet high and about 7 or 8 long with the ramp. It is super narrow and kind of sketchy but i think it will get the job done.
