I know its super lame to post on forums about handrails, but I really want a reason to come back thru Ohio and shoot this year with Level 1. I've shot 3 years we OFS, for "enjoy" and "turbo" in Ohio and kinda tracked out all the spots I'm familiar with. With winches and bungees there is def alot more you can do with wallrides, gaps, concrete trannies, etc. When we used to drive around looking for urban, 9 times out of 10 we were looking for a handrail going down a flight of stairs. If you see anything fresh, snap a photo. If you don't wnana post photos up and down NS send me an email at kyle@level1productions.com. If you send a quality spot I'm happy to share anything I know of in the area. Thanks!

You need to check out Hillsdale Michigan this winter.  My aunt lives there.  It is all hills, hence the name.  This results in handrails just about everywhere you look, and some sick urban jibs.

I looked on google maps and there seems to be a few "hillsides" in MI. Any chance you can specificy? I'm already plan on being in Michigan this season so could be worth the drive.

you guys should come back to akron and hit that gnarly 4 or 6 kink underneath the Y-bridge, the one you guys did in Re-Action.  I hit it last year, just the bottom kink, and its harsh but i think ahmet or someone could stomp the shit out of it

oh and do some bad shit up at the beach..fuck that dfd but you could get real creative if you ride down the hil tap the flat rail (which ultimately is then just a 20ft drop to the beach) but then you got that big hut that you could do something on the top or wallride down it ..might be confusing but I think you know that hut i'm talking about

Click for larger image

that picture doesn't give you a vew of the building i'm talking about but if you gotta winch you can wallride that fat lighthouse at the top then use the hill for speed coming down to the beach..use it as some kinda urban line...I know your tricky with them cable cams and shit

haha no worries. But yeah, the place is filled with rails.  There is a money rail, probably 10 kinks, SUPER hittable right on campus of the college.  it goes down from the football field to the lower field.

Madison middle school has a nasty 3 kink rail i believe. The travellodge by snowtrails has a long rail but its kinda schetchey. Also has a nice drop off with some fence gap posabilities .Madison high school has a real long real mellow dfd. Theres i like bingo hall or something off of 30 that has a white rail behind it in madison. It was in an OFS movie. U know where that is.
