Hey, I have not done any handrails on my uni, but I have done some on my
skateboard and I'm guessing its similar. Here is what I did:

1. Jump the stairset a few times to get comfortable it. While you're
doing this, visualize what it will be like to jump on and slide the
rail.
2. Next start trying to jump on to the handrail, but DON'T try slidding
it. Just see if you can ride up, get your pedal/crank on the rail, and
then jump off right away. This well build up your confidence alot
without having to commit to the grind.
3. After you are confident that you can get on to the rail, jump on and
try to stay on the rail (slide the whole rail if possible. If not, work
up the amount of distance you are sliding). Once you are comfortable
with sliding, try to land it.

The first handrail I did on my skateboard was only a 5 set, so when I
would bail off my board all these times, the impact wasn't too bad. I'm
not sure how it will be with your 8 set, but if your heels/feet start
to hurt, then take a break for a bit and come back to it.

Hope this helped.
