I think its actually pretty decent. Gap out = extra speed into it, kink at end= way harder when you are going pretty fast into it.
My only question is, has anybody seen Erik Ellington ever do a trick that didn't involve a front board, bigspin, or switch frontside flip in it?

hahaha i saw the marks on that rail last time i was in NC and was really surprised, yeah its small but its super short and the kink is harsh so it would actually be hard. i was told lizard got down on it, but i dont see what else could really be done besides boardslides, maybe a lip. definitely weird, but ellington rips
lizard prolly airwalked over the rail or ollie disaster'd it. Lizard style

john dickson kills it so hard. his footy in the bhouse video is probably the best footage in the video. and he is really chill, skated with him before hes really quiet and mellow.

He nollie flipped a gigantic looking double set in a recent issue of The Mag.

Also nollie flipped that one water gap in a spitfire ad:

Few people skate that gap in Strange World, well at least I think it's that gap.

I'm pretty sure a few tricks have gone down that gap including 360 flip, nollie flip, backside flip, and big spin. I think someone heelflip varialed it, too but I might be making that up.

Pat Burke's back 360 was the best thing done down it in my opinion.

I actually said his ad wasn't bad, but to say that he doesn't mostly rely on a handful of tricks that he does a lot is untrue. Yes, he does a few other tricks, it was an exaggeration used to point out how heavily he relies on his stock tricks. Almost every part he has ever had has ended with a trick that involves a big spin.
