are rails hard?

my first handrail was a 5 set, the set up was perfect, and the rail was
sweet too, so i nailed it on my first shot i think. i dont think theyre
that hard, you just have to try hard enough. if you think you can do,
you probably can.

Rails are easy, working up the courage to try, can be hard lol. Going
for it is the hardest part. My first was a 4 set....the most I have
done is 2 different 8 sets. How big of a set are you going for, you got
a specific rail in mind? Does it have a kink?

How do you guys lean forward enough to do a rail on a stair set. I can
do rails on flat fine but If I try a sloped one even just a little bit
I can't do it.

I've been wondering bout this myself lately. Ledges and stuff seem ok as
grinding pedal and crank seems much more solid and easy but all rail
grinds seem to be done just on pedal and I find that really hard to
keep balance on.
There is a round sloped rail at the local skatepark and I find it quite
scary to commit to the grind but also when I at least try it is very
hard to keep balance on just the pedal.

most rails are hard... I mean a soft rail is likely to bend...😄
rails are hard to hit.

To start, try and find a lower rail, so its easier to jump on. If you
can commit and just get on the rail, then you should land it.

I pulled a sick trey varial hickflip over an 8 set yesterday, but
unfortunately it was supposed to be seat in to seat out. I've named it
the dioflip
