what kinda rail do you want? flat bar? round rail? round rail just get a 4 inch pvc rail and drill it to some supports. flat bar mount a whole bunch of small pipes to a 2x4 or 2x6 useing glue then screw into them to make it real sturdy
wow that vid is awesome,good job on it for sure. i hate living in atl where it never snows at all so it impossible for me to hit any local rails with snow
i made a 2fter too. if we had any snow i could post a video, but that is not the case. mines 2.5 ft high, and has 2 inch PVC. 1.5 inch seems to work a little better.
If you are a beginner, then build a spine, if you have enough snow. Then just secure the rail on the top of the spine. This way, you lose balance and you just slide off instead of hurting yourself.
