What would you rather see someone do....spin onto a box and off of it (a basic flat box or a flat-down box)? or see someone slide a down urban rail with no rotation?
 
anyone can slide a down rail. its just in a different place and the location looks different. same as in a park. you just slide down it.
 
to spin onto a box takes more talent because you have to be in control of your body and have air awareness. especially if the person spins off to. ITS WAY MORE TECHNICAL.
 
i like seein guys spin onto boxes, spin on the box, then bust the 450 out. especially if they can do it with steeze (i.e. rainville)
 
the guy who won the orage masters won because he was way more technical and spinning tightly, not big, onto features. going bigger is easier. so definitly rails. why do you think it is so amazing that tony hawk spins a 9? a lot of the reason is because it is such a tight rotation and so technical to do.
 
I understand spinning onto an urban rail is the ultimate. We are talking 15 stair down urban rail. thats it. your standerd. weve all seen ski movies. they arent too different. that vs. the guy that can spin all four ways onto a box.
 
spin onto long box and do AT LEAST 3 switchups but every time you do slam your skis down do it harder and harder after each hop. Break the plastic off the end to really seal the deal.
 
and urban would be better than a 270 on but it would have to be a pretty sick urban to beat a 450 on. In general though urbans are way sicker
