| So, I just got off the phone with my old manufacturer.........great news. If you guys want GS back voice your opinion! Your opinions and thoughts on this topic are crucial to my decision. He's giving me the go ahead, but i want to hear what the public has to say. what do you want to see next? square rails? round rails? kink rails? curve rails? custom rails? what about rail width, height, length? let me know! my previous work: |

| definitely that bike rack with the round inside parts lol, those look fucking nice. And maybe something similar to the "Shag Pad"? If you dont know what it is, they have a picture on flatface of it |

| noted, i'd have to say though a simple low square would be ideal for a debut product line. until i can get my funds up, because i know the more complex designs will be more expensive

| I think the simple rails like standard square or round would be a good start. That bickrack does look pretty slick though, you should make some of those! And possibly some L or T rails would be nice too |

| Never heard of Grindstone before, but those rails are pretty sick. Maybe a c rail? - Twest wrote:

If you mean something like this, definitely. (sorry for the crappy paint.net image) |

| my thoughts on the simple rails idea, would be only one thing. id want to come up with a certain length and height that no other company has used. that way they wont call me a "copyer" lolol... longer rail or shorter more average height? i personally would dig a longer rail. nobody has done that... not terribly long though like 11-13"?

| It would be cool to eventually design and make something that no one else has sold before; something creative yet fun and easy to ride. ^^ Just don't go overboard on the 'creativity' like Zshred did on one of their rails.... |

| You should put a bunch of classic skate videos on the player and be on the lookout for some nice rails to replicate |

| Like a fat rail like some rails at skateparks are like hubba just a little bit too big for the full trucks to get on so you get the hubba feel |

| Shit forbid there be two rail companies. A waterfall rail would be sick as fuck. and for the adjustable rail thing you could just have a pin system with legs on the rail that are bigger than legs that are connected to the feet jah feeel? |

| Start simple then go more complex. Fully agree with the low square idea |

| I really like parrish's idea of the adjustable rail. That'd be super dope. |
