me and my buddy just built the sickest homemade rail ever. it's 4 feet flat, 4 feet downkink at 15 degrees, and then 8 feet flat. at the beginning it's 3 feet high. we made it out of 2 X 6's, so it's pretty wide and looks like so much fun. all we have to do is put a few supports in and wait for snow!
Are you feelin me? I'm on a killin spree.

go down to home depot, or some hardware store, and you can get these long flat metal strips that are bent down the middle. you could then screw them to the side of the rail youd be sliding metal then. much better

haha, today I was working on one at school with my friend, and we showed our 1/4 scale to a friend, he was looking down it and a teacher took him into the principals office and told the principal that 'he was sighting in on students with his weapon'. She thought our rail was a fucking gun, even though its only like a 1ft big. It was funny... anyway, yea....
