Video Transcript

"So there's all types of rails that can be grinded, sometimes you can grind a rail going down, and sometimes you can grind a rail going across if it's a little fatter or a little thicker like this rail right here. So this is just another example of a type of rail that you can grind. There's as many different types of rails as you can find, that will work good for this trick. Basically, you're going to ollie onto it and land with most of your weight on this part of the truck. You're also going to want to lock your back two wheels, the two wheels underneath your heels, and ride across that part. So the same exact motion is going to apply no matter what rail you end up skating. SO remember, whether it's a rail that does down, a rail that goes across, or whatever, or a rail that's thick like this one, the same rules are going to apply to the front side fifty fifty. So that's what's great about front side fifty fifties, is you can take them to lots of different obstacles."
