LineSki Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) We awoke to a great dumping of snow and realized it was time to do an urban handrail. So me and 4 friends traveled to Lafayatte College campus. My two other friends had already hit this rail and said it was nice and mellow so we decieded to go do it. We loaded up our shovels and shit and were on our way through college hill. So we took some time building the inrun and jump because the campus patrol was on our asses and after they decieded they werent going to do anything we proceeded. So we are hitting it for about 20 minutes, we are all eating shit and some of us are cleaning it. it was REAL sticky, I think that was due to the fact that it was an aluminum rail. We get a big crowd watching us and these two other kids come and are like hey can we hit it to so we say sure and they join in the fun. after that two more kids come up and want to do it too. So all in all it was a great day and we had lots of fun enjoy some shitty pictures. the setup This is rickymc hitting the rail this is skipoleupmyass, he came close to cleaning the whole thing but fell towards the end hit one of the poles with his shin and completely busted his shin open. I could see the meat! this is my friend justin, I think this was his attempt at 270 on This was one of the college kids that came out to hit it with us, he was killing this shit This is rickymc's ass Justin falling on yet another 270 attempt picture of the some other kid and that was my day Edited February 13, 2006 by LineSki Quote

xNick11 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 pretty cool..did u even wax the rail? Quote
LineSki Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Posted February 13, 2006 nope we just tried to rub snow in the rail alot and just lived with the stickyness Quote
stevePSSC Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 thats sick.. me and my friends as well went out to do a little handrail session but i was the only one who wanted to hit it.. heres a pic not the best pic but it was at night and thats the best we could do.. soon after landing that i almost got nailed by a snowmobile who was drving right at me and almost tipped the snowmobile while trying to stop 2 ft infront of me (his fault) anywho we soon stopped cause it was a sketchy set up and i was the only on hitting it..

VTmark Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 i got arrested building the jump on to the rail. Quote
Stevo Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 Shit mike, that is nuts- i heard finken fucked up his shin. Maybe i'll come with you guys sometime? I had a good sesh at dale's today anyway. Learned front 270s Quote
tretiak Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 theres a sick dfd rail by my house its like 32 stairs long Quote
TINY Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 thats mee hahah i fucked up my shin i cant put the pics in a reply for some reason so i will just put a new topic up Quote
toast21602 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 you should check out Lehigh for some insane rails. probably the best place for urban rails since there are so many and its located on South Mountian.... Quote
LineSki Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Posted February 13, 2006 yeah I heard lehigh has some nice ones too. but lafayette also has alot more. they have some crazy kinks that i wouldnt try. but there is a dub kink ledge marbel ledge were going to hit up. Me and my friend are going back out afterschool to do another handrail Quote
stevePSSC Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 none of my friends are really down for handrails that much so its hard for me to get ppl to go to a handrail haha Quote
DHarrisburg Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 Lehigh is bonkers and I've been scoping it for years. The only problem is that I don't know how tight security is at night, and I don't have lights/generator. Quote
Justo8484 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 security at lehigh is so hit or miss. i've gone there plenty of times to skate, and sometimes we skate for hours and dont get booted, and other times you're kicked out in under 5 minutes, so its really a tough call. if you're serious about hitting some good rails that no one's ever tried before though, there's plenty at lehigh. i havent actually counted, but i am going to estimate that there is one there thats something like a down flat down-s flat down or something retarded like that thats easily over 100 stairs.

Shadows Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 my one friend did that rail on his rollerblades.. i have it on tape somewhere.. if im thinking of the same one i think theres only a few that have done it. me and my friend took three days to actually land it. Quote
stevePSSC Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 i think theres only a few that have done it. me and my friend took three days to actually land it. ever hear of mike dockery? ill make an a little edit of him with the film i have sometime tomorrow Quote
Shadows Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 nope, sorry, probably seen him around though. o actually, theres these two kids i met at lehigh the day i landed that rail. one had broskows and the other had razors i think. Quote
