Converting pvc tricks to metal rails

[THURSTY]

i have a hard time doing all the tricks i can do on pvc on metal rails...

Either the rails suck, or you're not trying hard enough. Break a rib or two, so next time you know not to fuck up

I think metal rails are a lot easier to spin out of than pvcrails. But that´s just me

i learned that a main problem for me was that my pvc rails is flat and all the metal rails on the mountain are down. practice with your pvc on a hill or put the front of it on an elevated surface.

Apparently you will need a thick rubber coupling.

but honestly its just going to be a confidence issue. most backyard PVC setups are quite low to the ground, which gives you more confidence to try tricks. just sack up and do the tricks and you'll find that you can do them on pretty much anything

Spray paint all ofthe rails you see white sovthat you think it's PVC.

 

[tallteesteeze]

exact same thing

 

[KillaSteeze]

or spray paint your pvc rails black/grey so they look like metal

I find pvc to be a lot faster of a slide than metal, The metal rails at my local resort are always quite sticky so switching is a bitch, i just am prepared to slide alot slower

I laughed crotchkiller. I laughed.

But I agree...anytime I set up pvc in the backyard its so much easier to stick it at home, then on the mountain on real rails. Mostly confidence though...at home I'm sure no one is watching you fuck up repeatedly... unlike on the mountain where you might be waiting in a line just to hit something. Practice makes perfect my friend. its your subconscious not wanting to make a fool of himself.
