A grind on the pedal with the rail between the wheels and your bike turned to about 45° to the rail.
How do it
The grind is performed on the joint of the crank and pedal of your leading leg.
1.
Carry your front wheel over the edge. Jump onto it with a soft bunny hop — works best if you ride parallel and close to the rail.
2.
Balance your weight at the center of the bike, use the sliding crank as a foothold.
3.
The softer you manage to mount the edge, the more speed you'll have. To get off simply get to the end of the edge, so when learning this trick find shorter ones or jump on at the very end.
