Is it possible, or are people doing it, and im just completely blind to the fact? It seems like it'd be sketch to clear your tips and all

at the last year that the masters was in mammoth, during rossi's semi's heat. last run before the bell, andreas did sw lip 270 onto the big down rail. the bell rung right before he dropped in again so i dont think many people were watching.... but he did sw lip 450 onto the bottom down rail...sickest park rail trick to this day... if you think of a rail trick, chances are vanular or andreas has done it before...

Don't get you started about what???  the fact that you like rollerblade grinds on rails?  all that lame leg crossing stuff that looks like you are falling down?  the fact that you are one of the most opinionated super nerds on this site? 

you think matt walker might know a little bit about sliding rails, and what is tough???

huh, ya for some reason it just seemed really hard thinking about  it mostly cuz i was just trying to picture someone trying to do it on a really tall, steep down rail w/ like a really small lip or almost no lip and it seemed like it'd be hard to clear your  tips

by switch lip do you mean tails or tips over first?

i misunderstood, i've seen will wesson do tails over first, which is harder, i think.

oh my that'd be dopesauce, not sure if it would work tho.. thinking about it you would most likely catch the edges on your tips as you're spinning the butter around.

It would be pretty sick to see someone switch nollie into an urban style rail tho

well let's say you come onto the left side of a down rail switch and u spin left 2sev on, then it's  tips over first then tails, but it seem sreally hard on a tal tall rail with like no lip onto it

I dont concider clearing 7/8 of a rail while spinning a rail trick but yea that took a lot of balls to do.
Andreas slayed those rails tho.

thats what pictured in my mind too,  but the lip andreas did it onto was super wide, so he could go at it at a good angle so he could have enough air to clear his skis
