Watch for uprights those are what hurt

trails are not skateparks, they exist solely from the work and dedication of local riders. so next time you start complaining about not having local trails to ride, you only need look at yourself.

Hop higher than you need to, to avoid the vertical posts. Grow a lot of balls. Rails are scary. D:

theres reallly no tipss. for going down just do it. and concentrate on your pegs and where there gonna go. i fucked my slef up going down stairs a 15 set my pegs slippped off and i hit my face on the ground had a baseball size knot on my head it was baddddd. going uprails is more about your front peg getting on. but your be fine just go for it bro

Sorry, I shorted myself.

Hop higher than you need to *to get your pegs on, and then push the bike down onto the rail*.

Alright, well if you are going to double peg it, make sure you land FRONT PEG FIRST! Try not and land both pegs at the same time, for it is harder to stay on the railer at that moment. I'm going off the way I grind, right-foot-forward. I ride up to the left side of the rail, bunny hop, drop my front end when my peg is above the rail, and then let the back peg follow into place. With balancing, I cannot help you out, for I grond* a 4 foot, downward rail, haha.

*Past tense of grind, as in, I grond that rail yesterday. I made it up myself because you wouldn't say you rided your bike yesterday haha.

Don't listen to me, I'm not on the list either!

Hey Dave I just remembered that I have a handrail cemented into the ground in downtown fuquay that's what I learned them on.

trails are not skateparks, they exist solely from the work and dedication of local riders. so next time you start complaining about not having local trails to ride, you only need look at yourself.
