I'm a rail junky and i wanted to get the trouble makers but now i hear that they suck on rails. Whats the best (most durable, longets lasting) ski i can get for rails?

right now i'm on dynastar concepts, and they held up fine for two seasons, thats why i was looking at the trouble makers.

depends, how light are you, how aggressive are you. Fujatives are a good bet because they are made for jibbing and have extra thick edges but if you want tanks go with like last years mad trix or mad trix in general, they are crazy.

 
Chronics are being made with a bigger base and edge. I think that would help for rails.

seth pistols are sweet on rails. i demoed them for a day and i like them better than my PE's on rails but i suppose my PE's arent center mounted so that might be a problemo

4frnt is by far the most indestructible rail ski. But, i havent had anything bad happen with my fujatives yet. And i do alot of rails.

 
how bout everyone tells him what kind of skis they have and for him to get those...

to the people who say that mad trixx are indestructible, my brother broke his in one season, a huge 2 inch chunk right out of the base/edge. He is on the new ones now and they are holding up alright,

my PE;s have been going strong for 2 seasons now, but no matter what if you are gonna be doing rails, especially urban rails any ski is gonna get fucked up

^Did they land on rocks? Because that's the only way i can see. Sharp, pointy rocks. However, I don't suggest them for jibbing. Too heavy. I do, however, suggest the Scratch FS.

all i had to do was read the headline of this forum to tell you this.....

skis dont make a person good on rails, the person makes the skis good on rails

so with that being said, by some elans, and practice switch 450 on to a triple kink rail

no shyte skis won't make you better at rails, but some skis will get f*cked up way faster on rails. I've heard from a bunch of people now that TMs break easy on rails, but I don't ride them personally. I have seen the Chronics, and they seem pretty diesel on rails. When Justin Gillern hit the mt. snow deck jib, they were pretty much fine at the end of the day: after taking out pine trees, cheese grater stairs, and a wooden deck.

Bottom line, I'd say people posting they're experience with their skis isn't bad at all. I have skogen's personally, and they've lasted pretty well for 2 seasons, but have finally died (not due to rails though)

 
diesel?? what the fuck?

I think that is one of my favorite vids of all time. It is awe inspiring and so pure and honest. As pure and honest as a 5 year old, and god do I love five year olds... {haggar}
 
i got the best ski for rails they ARE my fischers from lastr yr they got edges poping out and slide like no other taking bids @ $500

All NS jibbers have to ask them self's one question: Am I progressive like the auto insurance or am i just Aflac?

HOLLA! ANCIENT REPRESENT!! ANCIENTINC.COM

 
despite what some of these people say, from many different people i have heard mad trix are awesome, and if you can still find last years they are SUPER cheap.

failing that, id say PEs, fujatives, 4frnts, and if you want to wait, the T-Hall pro models.

wow good observation! You are officaily the new ns genious. You can pick up your award after I shove it up your ass. - Phrosty

 
/\/\ that was last night zach and i decided that pic needed to be posted to show prob the worst beat pair of TM's out there

Best skis on rails? Easy. Someone elses.

and what the fuck is 'diesel'? That shit is just wrong.

In tractor pulls, a 'full pull' is the best you can get. Ahh, how sport mirrors life.
 
didnt some snowboard company make a board just for urban and rails?

someone told me dynastar might make a rail specific ski that cheaper?

 
im pretty sure that the madtrix hold up on rails, the PEs do too, but i dont think u'd want them JUST for rails

yea 4frnts edges are by far the burlies. Mine havent cracked at all. just about every pair of tms ive seen have cracks in edges as well as concepts, i have a pair and they are weak as fuck.

i have never heard anyone complain about atomics. just what i thought about.

Line Chronics, go on to their site and look at the R & D link, it's a PDF that describes how freakin awesome Line can be

 
burton also makes a snowboard called the dominant slick, and it has no edges. some core company like 4frnt, armada, or line should make an edgeless ski for such shenanagins as sliding around on metal hand rails over stairs. not because copying snowboarding is cool, but because its a good idea.

 
160cm salomon 720 blue and reds, sickest things on rails center mounted i had awesome controla dn spin on those and butters were sick but i broke em so

im gunna say the new ar5 and tanner pro model. They have super thick edges and a vertical sidewall underfoot thats built for abuse but i havnet seen anyone witht htem so its just speculation.

(trust me, the '' things aren't actually there)

 
shop guys.....how hard would it be to totally remove the edges on a POS pair of skis you didn't need to use anymore?

not true...i see atomics a lot. like at big bear and sugar bowl i saw at least 4 kids riding them.
