A big kicker, a little one, and a really steep one, a new rail is going up soon, and a little rail.

no, i havent slid the whole thing yet, but i am gettin there Laughing I am not sure how to land it, i think i am going to try grabbing it off the end. Yeah, that picture didn;t help a whole lot, i think i know what its like now though, comes to a point at the top and then goes back down to the water on both sides? That transition could be tough on a skate


Dude, you don't have to grab at the end to land the flat rail at Rixen... if you can slide to the end, just bend your knees and the board should stay with you. If you come off early, just try to apply a little weight on your back foot, or even give your tail little "snap" if you're skateboard savvy.

A-frames aren't hard on a wakeskate as well. As long as the down rail drops into the water rather than going right into it, it's just like dropping of a flat rail.

Who knows when I'll be home to hit it, but I'm sure by the time I get there "posterboy" will be killing it as usual. Wink J/k, Sean. Let's hope it's as gnar gnar as the scuzbourne a-frame Razz .

Kyle, its not an A-Frame, its just like the big rail now, just a foot higher, if i remember correctly, the same length. No down side to it either.

Any word on Rixen being open? I'm planning on going tomorrow and it would suck to drive all the way down there and have it be closed

Ok...well they are, but the new rail isnt out yet. Its not ready yet. I am mad though, they put this new soap thing in, which is pretty cool, but they also added the bench thing which sort of divides the 2 lines. So now we cant run across from the kneeboarder side, and jump off the wakeboard side for acid drops.

How are those shoes comign along?
