Hey guys - I'm building a park with a 11 set stair and handrail.. and want to get peoples preferences for handrail sizes...

Type of rail - Round or square?
Size of rail (diameter/depth/width)?
Height of rail?

also depends if you're snapper or not.

circle for sure and around waist hight or 1.5 board lengths high and mellow so you can grind for longer.

if its down an 11 you wouldnt really wanna be grinding for long

yeah but you dont want a steep rail and usually if its longer and mellower its easier to bail out of cause you want be going as fast or be on some wack angle. Well thats my opinion at least.
