first make a drop in with wood. then go to any hardwood store and they have turf. turf is fairly cheap. then to make the turf slide water the turf down and add soap. soap will not hurt ur skis dont worry.

for the jump same thing with the drop in just cut some sides and add ribs. to make the jump an angle like a quarter pipe cut a piece of plywood with a jigsaw two times for the sides and add ribs. then nail a final piece of plywood onto the ribs.
for the rail get a 2x4 or bigger and 2 pvc pipes. drill a hole on both sides or the pvc and wood. then find a bolt that can go up the wood and through the pvc. and screw a nut on the bolts and the pvc should be really sturdy

yeah and it'd be easier cuz then you could just side step back to the top instead of taking your skis off everytime.
