This is surely the craziest thing ever done in street skiing to date, nothing comes close. Even a cliff drop that size to a powder landing would be gnarly, let alone onto a plowed pack of snow:

SuspiciousFishCam Riley's Chase rail in Grand Bizarre is by far the gnarliest rail ever hit. Its 60ft long and 4 sets:
I disagree sure its a long Tech rail But there are longer rails with less kinks then that one and smaller rails with more kinks that have been cleared. If you need an Example of this just look At LJ Strenio's 2017 Real ski Edit. I would argue that the double elbow rail in his edit is more technical and sketchy than that rail.

Is that the segment ender? Its a gnarly one for sure. I think what makes the Chase rail gnarly is the speed you have and having to absorb the impact of the last kink. Strenio's is down the last segment so its fast but as long as you keep your balance your ok. Not so say that one isnt insane though, the whole segment is bonkers for sure. I grew up near Case Middle School and have seen the rail in person so maybe that perspective makes it gnarlier to me rather than other edits you only see through the camera lens.

Its definitely big and burly but no real death potential like many other spots thatve been hit. If we talking kink rails it’s definitely up there but in terms of risk factor, there are a lot riskier

Not to downplay it though, definitely risky falling off into the stairs and smashing into the rail but in my opinion a high up rail going over metal and concrete or like cam riley’s Parking lot spot, there’s a lot more risk involved.
Parking garage down flat closeout- 270 out. If he messed up the speed a bit, caught on the rail or fell off early, he would have smashed on top of a rail two stories down and at worst would have smashed onto the rail and then would fall another 10ft. after that onto concrete. With the perfect speed, he barely cleared the rail.
Landing shot to show the height
What was below if he didn't make it.

Khai also did(first in Toysoldiers?) the close in close out short high rail(mentioned with Clayton above). And I might be wrong, but pretty sure Khai did the (6 kink mentioned with Cam above) switch tails on in his real ski also.
Pretty sure LJ takes the cake with most amount of gnarly rails though. Cam has some good big ones for sure too.

This is also up there, one of the most underrated segments of all time. Wish McChesney came back to the streets
