I am planning on rolling through Toronto/Ontario area early this season to shoot handrails with Wallisch, Harlaut, Hornbeck, and Ahmet Dadali. We've seen and heard there are some dope rails up that way and we were wondering if anyone could help us out by showing us around.

Please don't reply to this post directly, but if you have any pictures email me at kyle@level1productions.com

Fort York in downtown has a huge staircase and rail which would offer a sick view in some shots.

It's located just south of the railway bridge at Bathurst and Fort York blvd

Allenby is double sided, has a good backdrop including a flag and the school.

Glenview is rail heaven, there are a couple dfds, some long ass mellow rails, and a nice 30 stair with good run up and landing. and btw glenview was featured by TW snow (maybe a cover shot i cant remember)

That's a hella legit big dub kink from what I remember. I used to live right there. You need a drop-in ramp but there is lots of room to set one up. It's off of a fairly busy road that dies at night. If you're doing a late night mission, after the public transport closes, you should be fine. You should be able to get a shot here with the Toronto skyline in the background including the CN tower which is a few blocks away.
