Waddup NS. I went back home to Maui for the summer and had to build a little rail to shred on so I can step my rail game up this offseason. Has anyone done this before? I'm sure there's not too many people in Hawaii thinking about skiing. Hit me with any suggestions/tips if you think I can improve it!

Looks sweet.
You should put some turf on the lip though so that you can grip your edges better

Weird. The first thing I'm thinking of anywhere is skiing.

I'm always looking at dfd sets, c rails, wallrides, even in places that never get snow.

Haha same. I've started to look at colleges and just for shits and giggles I looked on University of Hawaii's website. On the page there is a picture of one of their buildings and immediately thought "Damn thats a sick dfdf"

Thats a really good idea. There's no grip at all with the lattice...I ate shit real bad one time haha

A little different when you grow up here. The beach and everything is normal to me, skiing is a luxury

If you can get a pic or vid of you doing a lip on blind 2, using the summer set up on top of an ocean front bluff (possibly with a sunset) you will be my idol

Stay hydrated and cool, I can't stand hitting my setup in dry-air northern Minnesota when the temps get above 65. Can't even imagine trying to hit the summer setup in humid 80s, you da man.
