Rail Jam was pretty sweet. Lots of 270s on 270s off etc. Left early so not sure who won but the best trick I saw was; 50-50 on one of the top rails, then dropping healside to the down rail. Burton vid should be up soon.

So….tried the kink on the rail:

Yep, get that a lot. I know I’m going against the norm here but the ‘stiffest, lightest’ boards work best for me (sux they are the most exy). Noting your keen eye for boards, you would also know that that X is a few years old now, and it’s my board reserved for shenanigans and tomfoolery smile

Trying not to sound like a jerk here but the rail is not as bad as it looks. Camera angle makes it look gnarlier than it is. I tried to qualify for the comp. I was out of my league but wanted to have a crack anyways; was 30 of us going for 4 spots. Was really scared trying it for the first time but after that it was fine. The lip is higher than the rail so you can jump onto it ‘on axis’, if you know what I mean, and it’s also short enough so if anything goes wrong you’ll still clear it. There were heaps of spills but no one fell on the stairs.

Here’s a pic of me being rad:
