Ok. If you see a nice big rail that you think is do-able,

like nice in run, and out run, say where it is in the city,

then it will give everyone the oppertunity to hit them up and stuff if they wanted to...

Theres a rail in stonehaven, a sub devision in Newmarket, on that has a perfect infun..its almost as if it was made just so u could slide it...just the right size drop... then a nice 15 ft rail.. (not huge, i know..but still nice!) .. and then you have a whole extra wide walkway to slide out on. There are also a couple of douwnstar rails right before it for your advanced nutcase! :D

the first one is a triple kinked rail, with a run in, a place to park, and no hassle, it is located behind the archives, right beside the bridhge going to hull (not the alexandria, but another one)



this next picture if of a quad kink rail inthe exact same place. i believe david crighton does the whole thing...

There are quite a few Ottawa rails in my video this year (Guinea Pigs) that my bro does. Check www.engsoc.org/~bigmike/skiing/videos for the low-down.

David's also done a rail because of the new snow we just got. It was at the Long Island locks at the north end of the Manotick Island. Very sketchy drop to the right, and required building a picnic table in-run. Also it's a backside rail if you grind right foot forward. Very high, too.

The night shots are all at becon hill i went and checked that place out, the big kinked rails are do-able,

and the 16 step would be cool too, but you'd have to make a run out, because it' goes onto a road,....

as for the goal posts there in blackburn,

car tow in a must but there do-able as well,

Check out the rail behind town hall on prestone in orleans by the cineplex, its a thick round rail with a small kink, last year the guys from tommy made a run and a jump up to it, maybe they'll do the same this year or some one else could, it's really close to the jump and rail at Tenth Line i was talking about.

There's a sweet 50 or 60 foot rail on a set of stairs right beside Dickson arena in Cambridge. It's perfect! Even if it's warm, you can get snow because the zamboni dumps it right at the bottom of the hill.

the best rails in ottawa are along the canal. you can take somerset all the way east till it ends and there's a really nice one thats's pretty steep. they're all along the canal on the oppostie side of king edward between the queensway and rideau. i suggest a jock strap. happy slidin'

Actually, if you're driving up carling ave, look for two bridges in andrew haydon park. they're both perfect rails, but getting speed would be a challenge. you would probly have to bring a sled in at night or something... its far enough from the road that you would go unoticed and if cops show up you can take off down the river. next season- think about it

North side of the bronson bride, big double set with double kink. If you head down the first set and build a nice kicker, it would be sweet. I haven't done it yet, but it has been done.

These things make me mad.
