Propane tanks are super fun - but not technically rails.

I like slight up rails and shooter/unbow rails cause they are super fun to spin off of.

Rainbow.  And to who ever said flat/ boxy/ square rails, round are so much more fun.

Breck's got an S-rail with a kink they've set up as both a DownFlatDown and a FlatDownFlat...

Super fun, I like rails where it's a sick trick just to get to the end,,,and any trick beyond that is ridiculous. I like the challenge of that rail.

Single barrel S rail FTW!!!!

Nothing like a good slide on an S rail. So much fucking fun. Not to mention you can do crazy combos on em using the momentum of the turns. SO MUCH FUCKING FUN GAH I CAN'T WAIT TO SKI ON FRIDAY!

Up rails or C boxes.
I really dislike square rails though and it sucks because that is what every mountain has.

because its challenging

but really like a nice flat bar to work on things, also realllyyyy long technical urban style rails, like the ~40ft down-flat-down-lateral kink-down that i hit preseason, that are just super fun to grease
