This is one of the most genuinely helpful how-to's I've ever seen. I love all the detail. A lot of people probably don't realize that some of the best bladers in the world still ask a homie for a shoulder from time to time.

Yep, sometimes you just want to see how fast the rail is going to be before you commit to jumping on it at any certain speed. I've jumped on rails that looked like they would slide and you just stick and go flying forward head first. Some materials can be deceiving.

Everybody needs a friend like Austin 😃

Billy’s got a sick style 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

This is good advice for people getting started with handrails. Big ups, Billy.

This is dope! real life problems.

Even the simplest soul grind is steezed out. Fish is the man!!!

Super juiced you're making videos like this. I feel like the youtube space doesn't have enough of this style of content from recognizable people. Some of the most popular skating videos on youtube are based around the basics of skating, because most of the new people don't know where else to search. It's good to see reputable people from blade culture in the youtube mix.

This is what is needed. Not industry gossip, even though we like that too, but if a admired pro gives us tips on how they got this or that, I would be tuned in. I would like to see Jeff Stockwell talk about park flow. Collin Kelso address how to skate with style. Farmer on the secrets of negative tricks. Can you imagine that world?

Oh wow man this is helpful, thanks.

Ain’t that the rail you ally neg mistral 💪🏻💪🏻

I remember hand planting the rail in the Brooklyn banks... Im pretty sure that rail doesn't exist anymore. Great advice!!!

This is the best break down I’ve ever seen.

Nice tip! 🔥

Replace the handrail with playground slides and that was 1996 for me🙌

haha we all did that. definitely a good time

Rail is so low. Perfect for learning

Billy you’ve got a fan in me brother that is a great video

Awesome advice

You been following me around our something? Handrails don't stand a chance now thanks Billy 💪

Billy O'Neil with gray hair in a Bacemint shirt, making his own tutorial vid, roughly around the same time he launched his skate brand "Mesmer". It just shows me how much has changed, and how we don't need sponsors anymore. People are just doing their own thing.

More of these please! This is great and the kind of stuff we need to grow the sport! Thank you!

Yo let’s go Billy

This is such an awesome video we need more videos like this this is a good tutorial because I'm trying to teach my kids about how you're starting handrails and this is perfect by the way creates original frames Rock

great stuff Billy

Dude yes please make more of these rail videos I've been so close yet so far from hitting rails it just drives me mental...

Thanks for this. So glad I am not alone in this. I STILL experience fear whenever approaching rails even thought I've done a fair share. I thought I was just weak or something for still having this general fear. Thanks for showing us this.

Well you can really hurt yourself regardless of how much experience you have in the bank, so I think it's just natural.

Great video boys👍

goat.

after this i do my first 450 shifty on a handryl after 14 years

I used the same do-more-and-more-of-it approach myself

Awesome!!

That makes so much sense to test it out and hold on to someone and grind it from the lower part. When i started i would just jump on the thing like a psycho HAHAHAHA. That was back in my days though, no more aggressive skating for me. Still love to skate though.

What a great video!! Thanks!!!!!

for sure mr oneil that is definitely it. thank you for being there and rollerblading man. thanks a bunch! masala! "lets go vegan and rollerblade" from saint california!

2:50 : Billy O'Neill: "rails scare me" Also Billy O'Neill: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k3-aypuIqrrfY6w.html

I agree with that. It's doing the first attempt. After that it's like not so bad. My Dad used to say when you swim in cold seawater for example (getting your 'worst' over by jumping in initially, then your body is used to the temp). Just adding to, because Billy is spot on here and the hand onto the rail is one I forgot that I will be using again as I am having fun getting clips now.

More of this please

This was really really good.

1:16 you guys are hilarious haha🤣

Very cool

Great tips, thanks. Can we get a "How to 540" next?!

This is awesome! More street tutorials please 👌

Legends! Thanks a lot, enjoyed it very much !

Great tutorial! 🤘

So good Job

This is great Billy. Wish I had this when I was a kid. I learned by literally skating up to the rail and jumping and slapping my skate against it to boost my confidence.

My first hand rail i jumped on was steep, not very high and pretty short, on the other side of the rail was soft lawn, so it was easier for me to fully commit to jump on the rail because jumping to far wasn't really dangerous.

thank you 👍

Great content. But get billy some freaken eye drops next time. Lol

This was extremely helpful, thanks Billy !

One advantage with handrails over flats is you don't have to charge at the rail to get all your switches at speed. you can do that nice crouch and pop up shown here..

Friends: if you don’t have any of those things- LOL 😂

Top notch advice

You know someone came up in the 90s when they refer to it as a ‘Bauer Box’

SUPER HELPFUL VID

This is awesome, you should do more stuff like this when you can 🤟 Thanks!

Also become comfortable with running down stairs with you’re skates on.

Much love to you and Austin. You were my favorite athlete in high school! Will never forget b unique and the truth!

At the end of the day all those tips dont mean jack if you ain't ready to send it!

Legend!!!👽🙌🏻

Austin with the shoulder.....classic 🤣🤣🤣🤣👌

I just got back into blading after 1 year of not doing it an really want to start learning rails asap

Thanks bruv I've been scared of the inclined rails.

I'd make more of these,..and go into specific tricks, like the dynamics of like a true top porn, etc..more of the not so basic stuff though, it would probably do well, like a how to street, compared to on a mini, rock on!🤘

This was a great breakdown and I loved the slow motion zoomed in on the positioning too!

awesome video

Great video! inspiring and truly educational! Didn't know what to expect but the advice seems very helpful! Can't wait to work my way up to Handrails! Thanks Billy~

like ur R2D2 color style skates 🙂

Really good explanation, if I had this in my time for sure I be able to learn faster and not have afraid of rails. 💪👊

Awesome tutorial thanks a lot! give us more please 🙏

We all need a shoulder to rail on sometimes

Some Free Advice SFA, we used to have to buy the vhs before streaming internet

cheers 😎🤙🏽

This is all good, this is how I learnt. Until you sack yourself or flip over the rail onto your face, hitting you shins, thigh, wrists, knees etc on the way down. Its all fun until you get hurt badly and lose weeks of confidence that you built up...

Thats how we learn

Hey Billy, thanks for this I really wish I had this in high school when I was skating. I don’t think this is the best metaphor but is riding fast in the right situations better than approaching a rail slowly, like the added speed helps to get higher in jumps and you tend to slide out more instead of taking impact over a smaller area? I think there is probably way more nuance than this, I’m totally open to hearing everyone’s thoughts on this.

Handing up to a rail is harder than doing a rail. Get good at p rails, then go to bigger p rails, then decent size park rails, then handrails. Have a safety trick and learn how to fall. Process...

Use shin Garda

How bout true fish lol 😂 u know the deals on that one ☝️

Billy sounds like a Californian now lol he used to have such a thick NYC accent haha

That only works if you can squash your tricks. When I first started squashing was very hard for me.

I also feel the jump over, touch the rail, with controlled landing parrallel to the stairs is good practice as well, and practices your abort moves.
