skip the bails haha. what do you do at the end of the rail to land it? My nose always hits the ground before my tail is even off the rail

When you get to the end of the rail you just need to transfer your weight back a little bit, like you're doing a manual, just live the nose up, and roll off.

Quite easy actually. Think of 50-50 grind as just ollie up a curb and drop down from the curb.

Basically what you do when you roll out a curb is putting your weight on the tail so the nose doesn't stoop down.

Try ollieing off, or Manual off, like raise up the nose beore you get off the rail and that won't happen, its the same way when you ride off ledges.

Like everyone else has said, its just like dropping off a curb. Just lean back to keep the level with the tail and you should drop off just fine.

yea dude. just before your front trucks get off the rail, just push down on the tail and ride off like you would a curb or ledge.
