no, sliding rails is really not hard and if you cant figure it out on your own your doomed to live the life of a less than average, cubicle filling loser because you have no balls at all

Step one is learn to ski... nobody should set foot in the park until they can ski well enough that they're comfortable everywhere on the mountain.
Secondly, get a smaller, wider rail to practive on. The ones I learned on were about 5 inches wide and 8 feet long, and flat. Anything as wide and as short as that is fine.
Next, TURN YOUR BODY, not just your skis, 90 degrees and just focus on the end of the rail. If you don't chicken shit yourself out of it you'll be fine.

aha, dont mind him. there are a few things to keep in mind when learning rails, they shoudl help alot, and try and make sure you are doing them all. Number one: JUMP off the jump onto the rail, dont try and slide onto the rial or anything. In the air turn a FULL 90 degrees and make sure you get the full 90 degrees landing with your feet shoulder width apart, dont keep them together! Number two is to be ontop of your skis, rails are slippery, dont let yourself slip back, stay downhill and ontop of your skis. Number 3: this is once you can get onto the rail without slipping off backwards and with a good 90 degree solid stance on it. Onc eyou can do this, you just have to look at the end of the rail to balance on it. I hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to ask.

Make sure that your body weight is even over your feet and you arent leaning forward or backward. make sure your skis are flat against the rain as well...and focus on the end of the rail!

thank you J.D_May. learning how to actually ski before you even try anything in the park is such a novel concept isnt it? anyway, providing you do know how to ski, you gotta turn the full 90 degrees, and if you slide out, i have found if you drop your front hand a little, kinda like down by your knee, it will keep you forward.

Mike summed it up well..
You just have to practice, you'll get better each time. And you have to just go for it. If you pussy out everytime your not going to learn.
