Hey, I need help doin 50-50s. Firstly, i have a high enough ollie, over 2 decks high (in primo postition) but when i try for a 50-50, i just cant ollie over the rail and get my trucks on. And even if i do manage to get on a 50-50(rarely) I cant seem to come off the rails. So please give me all your tips for
i) Gettin your board onto a 50-50(angles you should come in at etc...)
ii) Getting off 50-50s
Thanks!

Ok lets see, me I don't do 50/50s on rails never really tryed might have to do it this year, I do Curbs and ledges...Anyway I always aproach from the side on an angle and I ollie onto the curb or ledge BackSide, so try coming at it from and angle cause the way you make it soud is that your make your ollie right up onto the rail from the back...Getting off is easy, just Ollie again and turn your board to a slight angle or make it look good and do a 180 off or whatever.

there are two ways to come off u can ethier do a little pop off in the middle of the rail or the easier way i think is to just rideto the end and wen your front trucks reach the end then lean back and kina 5-0 the last bit so u land on oll 4 wheels hope that helps

basically, if its a round rail its pretty hard. but ya just go fast, ollie on the side, and grind to the end. it looks doper if u roll off the end rather than pop off part way.
