People Also Ask
What is a kink on a rail?
A bend or change of angle in a rail, or an uneven section of a feature, that makes it harder to slide across cleanly.
Why are kinked rails harder?
The change of angle disrupts a smooth slide, so the rider has to hold their balance and control through the bend rather than gliding straight across.
