well.....
i can ollie stairs but i needed help then grind the rails next to them....
the rain is about 30 odd cm from the steps and i was lookin'to boardslide or feeble or 50 50 along it....

any one got any ideas to help me?????

Either you're good enough or you're not. It's frustrating to try and bail but you have to sack up and get the initial try out of the way.

Yeah i asume that the rail is slanted. What you need to do is for boardslide keep your feet over the bolts and leand forward, for 50 50 just keep your weight centered and lean forward, and i dont know about feebles.

I dunno, man. These tricks are just something you either do or you don't. Obviously you aren't committing because when I am skating rails my feet are planted firmly. How are you at all these tricks on a regular flatbar?

before you do a handrail put a raill off of like a 3 foot ledge and prctice doing slants, then when you do the handrail pretend its that rail you just did.
