take a pic of you hitting the rail.



am i the only one that thinks it would be stupid for them to do the delbrook rail as one of the rails in the nike thing? I mean, if you want to hit the thing, why not just drive down there and hit the damn thing?

It's one block up from Queens on Delbrooke. At least the longer rail over wooden stairs is. The shorter one over concrete stairs is just past the tennis courts, and even closer to the tennis courts is the super mellow down rail.

Ah man, you're a genius, I'll go pack the trunk of my bmw with snow and sesh delbrook after work.........

Whats sick about this contest is, its not replacing the need to hit street rails, that will never happen. But its bringing street features to the hill. So instead of hitting street rails, then coming to your hill and being like alright, rainbow rail and ride on flatbox time, you've actually got legit features to mess with.

I'm not sure if you've seen Delbrooke but hitting that with strictly arena snow is pretty sketchy.

Oh I'm not saying it wasn't done, I know it has been as a few of my friends have tried it with arena snow. Just saying it really isn't a good rail for strictly arena snow simply because of how long it is.

ya dosnt seymour already have like a 50ft long rail or used to?I head something about it coming back this year? its sick there bringing those urbans but no need to bring the urbans from van haha. im sure everyone's hit delbrook too. i agree with andrew, replace delrbook with another urban. that french red box down flat one would be sick.
