Hey for any cable riders out there, what are your pros/cons on hitting handrails in cableparks like the one in the image? Also, this rail is from Hexagon, but do you know any other cableparks that have rails like these?

Hydrous-Allen has a metal rail, and BSR has a metal round tube/pipe.

I don't prefer them myself, too much board damage and wet skin splits easier on metal, but they're big hits with a lot of other riders.

I love a good handrail. If it is made of carbon steel you are going to need to paint it. It will rust in a day. Aluminum like the one above slides like butter.

handrails are so fun. +1 for board damage though… if you catch a support or anything your edge is toast… abs sidewalls or not… they blow. we have our own cattle gate rail we built and winch it.

Ohhh sorry about that, I saw it on Hexagons sliding pictures and just assumed. Now that I went back and checked, it looks like it was just an advertisement for Liquid Force. Thanks for all the comments, I really appreciate it!
