holy shit i was just watching happy dayz and henrik hit an urban rail switch. people really dont even do that today. just like he did the pipe run switch at the x games. i never realized he was that progressive.
 
yeah in forward, Crighton tries to do the samething, but he wrecks himself, but then he sticks the massive 4 kink urban, so its all good
 
he sticks several switch on's, and was going for cab 270 disaster on a double kink when he fell if I remember correctly.
 
Chricton does the illest switch to switch handrail in Forward. So gnar. I think he does like a switch butter on 270 out as well.
 
are you kidding me? It's waaay easier to hit rails switch. You're never blind going switch, which is always my problem spinning regular onto rails.
 
maybe switch 270 on, but not switch onto an urban rail. And I would imagine that reg 270 on with a flat lip is easier than switch 270 with a flat lip.
 
i dont think henrik was in the x games this year. Andres Hatviet (I porbably fucked the spelling) was the one to do the half pipe switch
 
Uhh, I'd have to say I've done it. First time I fell pretty good. Next time I got it, but I don't think I've ever concentrated that hard on a single trick. It was like and ollie on rail as well.
 
exactly, that movie rocks, so far ahead of its time, pollard grinding both ways, mickael doing sick blunts, candide destroying it.
 
you guys are forgeting something really important here, all those switch ons were done with mount everest jump ons.

when someone does it with an ollie pad then it'll be progressive.
 
the first time i saw someone do an urban rail.. or any rail was vinnie d in msp's global storming, it was the bomb
