I just bought a new set of blue Vision rails, I'm wondering who else here still uses em on their board. (I'm putting it here coz the kids don't even know what they are anymore :tongue:)

naw... I don't really see the need of them. My fingers are strong enough, and my Flip is definitely strong enough...so yeah...

Some boards really look amazing with rails though... Especially black decks...with orange rails...hot.

wtf are you talking about m8?? I was talking bout smoother/better boardslides when skating pool (if the pool has a rough edge, your board will but ripped in no time & it really doesn't slide all that good imo)

@djkells: I hope you're kidding & that what I typed above explains it

I ride rails on most boards. The coping at park where I skate is torn up by BMX'ers as well if I find a lone rail unmolested by wax, then I don't have to wax it.

Put them on!

I haven't used them in a few years...but I certainly wouldn't be opposed using them. They certainly save your board and make for good sliding!

when doing Freestyle i would love to try them, to see how underflips are effected and if they do much for balencing while standing in a railstand.
