Sorry half asleep at the moment. What I meant to say was, do you guys prefer to have urban-on rails in the park or just normal ride on (lip even with rail)

depends on the rail and how well the takeoff is built. I like both fine

I agree with the down rail part, ride on down rails are fucking dumb, but an urban on flat rail can be fun with a good lip.

Any kind of ride on sucks unless you're learning lipslides. I come on from the side anyway. If I try to get on with the rail between my legs, I always fall off (my) front. Probably because I'm so used to jumping to the side.

urban on, i feel that it is easier to control the slide. When i ride on i don't always get my body 90

I think urban is always more fun if it's built well. A nice urban lip that sets you down smoothly on the rail right at the apex of your air is $$$. RIde ons just aren't as smooth if you want to pop or spin at all. They're great for learning though.

i just wish they would stop putting random pieces of metal in the middle of jumps, its really annoying having to jump off the side of them.

I completely agree with that and it helps you become a better skier.

I like slide on if I'm learning tricks, just because I have the comfort of knowing I'm not going to clip my tips on the rail and die but if I got a trick down I definitely think that urban-ons are much more fun
