Subrosa Street Rail – Matt Ray and Matty Long

June 17, 2019

Matt Ray is back on his Youtube game and uploaded this new one to check out. It’s a little vloggy, but it’s mostly riding from a session he caught with Matty Long on a Subrosa Street Rail. The session was pretty laid back, but both of these guys stacked some solid clips. Plus, it’s been way too long since we’ve seen Matty Long’s name pop up. Needless to say, this is worth a peek. You can pick up a Subrosa Street Rail over on the Subrosa website.

“Brought my two street rails over to Matty’s for a session one afternoon. Sessioned them for a while , got whole foods , rode some more , kicked it with his dogs. Overall it was a good day.
These rails are perfect for learning new tricks or even just staying dialed with tricks you’ve already got. Cant thank Subrosa enough for hooking me up with these.” – Matt Ray
