Saw this waiting in the uploads and couldn't believe it. Good to see you back in those Cleans for a change, Ryan; fucking sick grind

I've done rails like that, REALLY steep and a deadly kink at the end.

Amazing that you done it in royale, especially with the fact that you have such little time to jump off on a rail like that

you get sick speed on those type of rails
especially when they are new and slick like tht one
nice royale

This was probably my most satisfying grind to date. I had always wanted to hit this rail back when I was a regular soaper, but it was always too steep and the right sided rail has a tree over it. Thanks to rollerblading, I have learned some new tricks (such as this one) and it made this rail a lot less scary.

And this isn't the last of my media that you will see... stay tuned.

That must've been a blast to watch and pull off.

Looking at this reminds me that I've still yet to grasp the concept on how cess slides work.

incredible royale

Dec 10, 2009 Brad

yeah. i always hated those damn little kinks right at the end of the rail though.

Dec 10, 2009 sylonbroadsides

I honesty never made it to there, I was always too scared to get that close so I'd jump off two feet before that kink

Dec 11, 2009 Brad

Well thats probably for the best ;)
I tried just not jumping once, and it sucked.

hopefully one day I'll be able to do some badass soapin like ryan

That's just about the same steepness as the first rail I ever soaped...and it was all slick and shiny like that one, too.

I must be crazy.

Jan 6, 2010 sylonbroadsides

having fun is crazy haha. Ryan might soap again sometime, but he enjoys a crowd.
