Post Picture of an S-Rail

Our mountain made an S-Rail, it's fucking burly... it's 2 full C's but together. Personally I think it's one of the gnarliest S's I've ever seen, but my brother said there was one bigger, huger and rollercoastered at Keystone a while back. Anyone have any shots? Or any other S rail/box... just to feed my curiosity and gauge the difficulty level of this thing.

I'm sure it's hard, but it's just so mellow. The one at our mountain is like.. immediate curvature, and really intense, too.

Damn, best feeling ever is greasing a burly S-rail. Makes me want to bring my skis when I head up to Stoneham next week.

There have been many more than just Dave Lesh... another skier that has gotten it would be Graham Owen.  My friend got it on a snowboard last year.  I know of like 3-4 people that got it last year.. its just a matter of getting it on video.

Breck's double kink s rail is fun, except when they set it up urban style like last year.

Yeah that one has a pretty mellow curve but it's really banked - you had to lean a lot into that one. I never made the whole thing.

Yeah, no kidding. I couldn't work out how fast to go, so I figured I'd try going fast so I entered the first curve pretty fast and fucking shot off haha

Copper had a Roller-S rail like 5 or 6 years ago, and i remember all the angles were kind of wacky and no one had greased it, so one day they got all the local pros and someone taped a hundred dollar bill to the end of it, and they sessioned it the entire day.  I think Greg Tufflemire got it hahaha

they cut the roller coaster in half and made two small rollers out of it this season. the s rail is the banana booter rail that JayDope is talking about
