  2. Its hard and you need to land on the pedal only to avoid hook ups that
    will throw you off. I still can't get them yet, ledges and stuff is not
    much of a problem as you can use your crank to grind also but landing
    and holding pedal only is difficult.
    Just watch a few videos you'll see how everyone grinds rails on just
    pedal, in fact watch 'this video' (http://tinyurl.com/2k9y9v) you can
    see him grinding rails on pedal ledges on pedal and crank. He is quite
    good though 😎

    They are expensive because they use only the finest soft drink cans.

  5. Find a skate park, and start there.

    They usually have low rails to grind, so falling wont hurt to bad, and
    getting to do the grind wont be so risky.

    Really though, just go for it, and land with lots of weight on the
    grinding foot. Too much weight on the other pedal can lose your
    balance, or twist the wheel.
