One rail, which side?
« on: March 03, 2015, 06:33:31 PM »
For you guys that skate rails out there.... I like skating rails but it adds a lot weight to my set up. If you skate one rail which side do you put it on, the heel or toe edge?

Toe side, works well doesnt seem lop sided when i skate, if you want a light one don't go the rib bones

Edit: Not to hijack the thread or anything, but have any of you guys tried the PPS rails, they looks like white versions of thin ribs with the one rounded edge

Toe side, but offset it more towards the middle for feeble slappies.

I tried one rail and it's ok but really prefer two.
Heel side for me because I can still pivot to hurricane with it.
