Can you do board slide grinds? In a regular deck (8.25 dgk)

easy answer; yes you can. hard answer, very carefully. these were used back in my day, late 70's and early 1980's, on wider boards, so to protect the bottom of the deck and to give a grip area to grab the board during tricks. since they are made of plastic, they act like a lubricating rail, they speed up the slide on the coping, rails and so on. you have to practice using them to slide with, since they tend to make you slide faster. on new style boards with such a concave, the rails will act the same, until, they wear and the middle of the board will be exposed, creating a edge that will grab while sliding, giving you a unequal slide pattern. there are so many benefits rails bring to the board; adjust your skills to use them. the slide factor is such that it can break loose when you are not expecting it. ride on

do they work for scooters

Hi, Thank you for your interest in Rib Bones. These are designed for a skateboard, not a scooter. However, it appears some people have gotten them to work on scooters using adhesives. Your 5-star satisfaction is our #1 priority. Please feel free to contact us with any other questions or concerns. Thanks, David

What is the length, width and height of the rails?

14.5” in length and just under a 1/2” in height

Will there be a tailbone or also known as tail skid plate made to further complete an old school look?

Powell Peralta does sell them direct but we currently do not have any plans on carrying it.
