Replying to Can you lipslide a flat rail? Yea or Nay?
What up creatures
Pretty simple here - looking for your input on lipslides.
I've always believed that a lipslide is only a lipslide if you've got to actively pop your tails up and over the rail. Typically this would be on a normal urban style down but obviously there are a million ways you can imagine getting onto a feature this way.
It is my contention, however, that hitting a flat rail (with a takeoff that is essentially level with the height of the rail itself) does not constitute a lipslide, no matter how far over you approach the rail. That being said, if you use the side of the takeoff (like a kook!), I am down with that being called a lipslide.
What do you all reckon?
