TailRails (7 Second Rails)
The TailRails or what they call “Seven Second Rails” is a collaboration between FlightFins and Badgerwheel, two well know companies in the community. Seven seconds comes from that both Brenden Schurmeier and Kyle Hanson crushed their top times by seven seconds on the highly competitive Whoops trail in Los Angeles.
According to the companies, these rails are built for speed and downhill. There are both rail options for the XR and the Pint (shorter version).
Key features of the TailRails:
- Bomb technical or steep downhill with confidence that your tail has additional clearance and will avoid scrapes that lose you speed and control
- Ride in Mission for a classic feel with more leverage, or use custom settings to lift the front slightly to create a more locked-in feeling
- FlightFenders fit with no modification
- You can switch the board direction for extreme hill climbs without using Elevated.
- Easily tighten your inner hub bolts through the center hole with the included ball end wrench, or add a BadgerBite hub locker and never worry about inner hub bolts again.
- Enough clearance to ride out Captain Morgans up to 150% longer after a day of trail busting
