come on to the rail, and speed is your friend if its the first time trying a rail, but if its just a small rail (which I suggest trying first) then dont come on to the rail going mach 10. Ok so, once your on the rail, get your body weight centered and spread your feet shhoulder width apart. You can even lean a little bit forward if you like, that keeps me from falling on my ass/hip. And when you come out of the rail try not to start turning before the rail is finished, make it look you do the turning when the rail is gone.
