new to boulder. Where are the best handrails/features. There are a ton of good ones on campus. How fast do people get kicked out?

My freshman year we build a nice kicker to get onto one of the rails behind coors center. Right as we finished building it a snow plower came through and went right through it. I think he felt bad because 5min later he came back with a full plow of snow and set us up pretty nice.

long story short, it depends where you are and who see you. you probably wont get kicked out too fast.

Yo guys I can't ski until second semester because of my knee, but if anybody is hitting urban once snow falls, hit me up. I'll help set up (can't pull bungees though) and film your sessions. I really just want to be doing something related to skiing and this is the closest I can get. And I'll give you copies of all the footage.

Homie broke his leg on one of the supports of that rail. Shit was fucked.

There is some sick stuff way up the hill near some medical facilities. There is a sick C ish rail, a down rail, and some pretty high closeouts. I'll find some pictures later.

I guess I need to apologize to the Boulder NS community; I was the one that made the 911 call that ultimately led to it getting knobbed....but like, when a homie's leg is cracked around a support, future urban sessions are the last thing on your mind
