The only thing difficult about flipping into a handrail over anyother
park rail is the width of the rail. The park rail in germany was the
size of a normal handrail, however I don't have that kind of hype
around here to flip into that narrow again. At least not with this
weather and lack of hype. Plus there aren't any good rails around here.
I reckon any 4 or 5 would be cake, first try, if there was a decent run
up before it. Sixes and sevens would be more of a mental game. I'll
flip into one soon here but the weather just slaughters any chance of
me getting out to any decent place, rather than just around here.

4, 5, 6, 7, their all the same. But yes mentally it would be
challenging.

I've got the perfect 4 for this. Its so thick you might aswell call it
a "hand pipe" insted of a "hand rail".

face grinds are no good, unless your going for that...

anyone here grind back foot? if so, any of you back footed grinders hit
any crank flips to round rails yet? im finding it much harder to catch
the cranks and line it up with the rail, its easy on ledges though. But
pin-poniting that rail for your pedal is a biatch!

Yep I know... I'm back foot. I'm thinking about going front foot for the
soul purpose of flipping onto hand rails haha.

Maybe we'll just have to backflip on.

I grind back foot and have flipped to round rails on both sides, blind
and normal. I have never really tried flipping to flat rails other than
a flat one at Wunschkonzert. Just takes a little practice to get the
feel for it.

No.

There is less surface area when grinding with just a pedal, so its
smoother, specially when sometimes you can hit a ledge with your
bearing holder, crank, and pedal all in contact.

Im more stable on my crank, but pedal is what I go for with any grind.
It just takes practice and precision.
