Grind down your skis with like a buffer spinner thing, or a nail file. then wax the fuck out of the concrete. Dude metal rails are so much more fun, i suppose its preference.. but unless you have a SHIT pair of twinners then stick to the metal.

any type of skateboard wax works best, just go down the nearest skate shop and pick some up. Candle wax is OK, but not great, but it'll work if you don't have skate wax and it's 1AM and you can't find anything else.
