A great idea indeed. But I'm almost positive it's been done. Not that that should stop you or anything. Just be careful of the handles.

yea, i've hit a sea-saw rail.  mission ridge in WA state.  it's 20 feet long or so, and it feels like a rainbow rail when  you slide it, but a lil' different.  pretty badass.

I was just going to mention mission ridges. Its nice, but it really sucks balls when it sticks and doesn't see saw to the other side. But if you get the right amount of speed, its a sick rail.

if you hit it too fast you'd be fucked i'm guessing, or too slow you'd go right back down.

who knows, i wanna try one though

no, you'd just gap the down part, or you'd go further before it saw'd. Think of it like an up-down rail

I made my own for a backyard setup several years ago. It wasent that fun after a little while. I made it too tall and it was really hard to get speed so i took it apart to make different stuff.
