  9. Grinding is an easy but impressive, and a fullfilling trick. You stilll
    get the pride of a new trick, and it takes what? an hour to learn on a
    ledge?

    I cant do em all that often, due to the lack of ledges, and the
    dominance of handrails around where i live.

    just approach the ledge at a slight angle, and dont jump up, jump
    forward - but jump just high enough to make it onto the ledge with your
    crank, and finish it up. Thats all there really is to ledges. When i
    learn handrails, I'll see if ican make a tut.

    And NKahler, just find a pipe that someone is throwing out, and find a
    decently high ledge, and put the pipe from the ledge to the ground.
    Jump off the ledge onto the pipe, and this should help you with
    handrails.. I wouldn't know. i cant do them. But grindable ledges are
    hard to actually make.. So just go out and find one. I found a sweet
    marble one where i live going down a 3 set. It is beyond sweet. But
    to avoid scratching it up, i have to use plastic pedals..

    Anyway, have fun bro. Good luck.
