I don't know if it has been done, but I wonder if something like a 270 mute to rail would be stlyish? I'm intrigued to learn more. Has anyone here tried one?

candide has also done a cork 810 tail grab

it looks good as long as it isnt rushed so u definetly need some good air onto a rail

270 mute could be sweet if it was a disaster and slowly reached. It would be ugly if someone went for it really fast

i haven't tried spinning with a grab yet, but one of my favs is to double toe piece grab to grind, and hold the grab through the grind. some might think its gay, but i think its fun.

grabs onto rails are should be used for composure's sake only, so basically if youre not doing 810's and 630's you dont need em, so dont do em because it wont be worth it, it'll end up looking all rushed and crap, wont be fun or pretty

I think its like any number of things in skiing, if you've got steeze it can look sick as fuck but if you just do some sketch 270 mute onto a flat rail you're just gonna look like a queer.

its def gotta be a down flat down disaster or a huge flat down gap for any grabby spinners to look good at all. spinning corked off is sick in 07, id like to see more of that going down.
