I want to make some tramp skis to practice tricks in my back yard, only option to purchase I found where the ski addiction ones but I don't exactly want to pay $300 for those. I'm thinking about some old skis from when I was really little or cut a skateboard but I'm not sure.
Any suggestions welcome.

When I was younger I tried using shoes duct taped to pool noodles and rolled the fuck out of my ankle. Then I tried using old skis and put a hole in my trampoline.

Tramp skis are a huge waste of time. They won’t help your air awareness at all. You can never generate enough lift to do any tricks anyway. Just strap on some ankle weights if you want to get a somewhat close feel for flipping with skis on. Or just use the trampoline normally.

Yard sticks work well. You can grab them, and they dont really add much weight. Anything heavy on your feet makes trampoline stuff pretty difficult imo. Or just grab your feet and spin corks like you would on a jump.
