So this doesnt deserve its own thread, but where else would i put it? Sittin in my dorm at IU we have at least 6 inches of snow left. I have already hit up a real mellow 35' rail and a dub kink...there are tons of rails to hit, but the rest are all aluminum....I have heard skis dont go well with aluminum, and i really dont wont to go the effort to build a lip and see for myself...does anyone know first hand if aluminum will slide well with skis?

Slides a bit slower. But the real problem I had was it dents like a motha fucker.

word.  I might try it then.  I dont care too much if it dents; however, try explaining that one to the cops...though i must say the cops are so chill at IU..they stopped by a rail at the football stadium and watched us for a few minutes and then waved and drove off....never experienced that before.

God there are a few rails up there I always wanted to hit but never had the chance to. Is the double kink you did the one by the Auditorium? Because that thing looked pretty much perfect.

No, there is a double kink at the end of the soccer field. its so secluded. we had the generator and lights on for 3 hours and not one person came over and checked it out. there is a quad kink by the auditorium as well, it starts out as a flat and would be amazing to clean.
