What is the best way to learn how to ride rails? (snowboarding)?
Its my first year of snowboarding, i can ride boxes, jumps etc. fairly mediocre, and whever i try to ride a rail i fall on my ass. whenever i get up on a ride-on rail i fall halfway. is ther any technique I have to start doing or is it just practice over and over again?
speed is important, but commitment is the most important. bend your knees stay centered and don’t think about bailing. get the speed to do the whole rail at a solid speed. remember usually on a metal rail u will lose speed plus ur riding up the ride on so ur losing more speed so compensate for that. if ur falling around the same time ever time i would guess its due to a lack of speed or your psyching yourself out.
