I have a pair of snowlerblades from a couple years ago, and i decided for a way to practice rails was to use them so my other skis dont get ruined. best idea ever!

pvc rails dont mess up your skis as much as metal
build yourself a pvc rail and practice on that

If you wanna practice sitting on your ass in the snow and saying 'I can do that, I just don't wanna', use a pootyboard (aka snowboard)

Pain is... hitting a parapelegic dead on at 50Km/h while skiing backwards

why do you have those things? they are horrible, i dont care how good they are for practicing, they are the worst thing to happen to skiing since the newschool harness.

we took this 20 foot piece of plastic pipe from a water treatment building thing next to a park where we built our jump. The people that worked there showed up and were watching us but they didnt care at all. That shit slid good too.

yeah PVC is the best choice becasue snowblades are so short that u wont be practicing how to pop up onto the rail, u wont be used to have so much more taila nd tip to move around/ worry about getting caught on the rail or in the kicker

If you live in a city that doesn' get much snow, you could always try the Streetski newschool model, which would also be great for x-training in the summer.

the street ski is the gayest thing ever. why dont you go put on a pair of roller blades and lern to do rails. that will help you with the balane issue and it makes you not a pussy on rails for skiing
dont talk shit,
just ski.

hey guess what, its winter now, insted of thinking about using roller blades in the summer u should be out skiing right now, unless of coarse u have no snow... but yah its just horrible when people use old skis and snowblades to pratice just use your good skis it pisses me off when people have to go get their 'rail skis' to jib it doesnt even make that much of a diffrence

^Dude, getting 'rail skis' for a rail session is a good idea. It's harder than hell to ski pipe with no edges from sliding rails. If you have an old pair of twins, use those for rails, otherwise you'll be sliding all over the tranny in the pipe, lose lots of speed and look gay because you can barely get above the deck, especially if you ski in the east and your pipe is icy.

Rail skis are def a good idea,for like back yard set ups and shit, but use the same skis in the park unless u've got 2 at your disposal.

here is the best way...take a skateboard and put it 10 feet in front of you and run and jump on it...think about it...if you are back, you will slide out on your ass, same goes for a rail...try 270 on and 270 offs..its super swick


When in doubt...FSI
