Do they actually help or is it a gimmick

They are very fun. They help with air awareness and the feeling of doing flips with something on your feet. They also help wth grabs and grabbing in flips. They do not feel exactly like real skis, but they do help a bit. That being said it still feels more like doing the trick on tramp than on skis.

They're cool and do help with awareness on jumps. I use them more for training on rails with a jib bar I made tho.

they simulate the extra weight and volume of skis. good for training fore and aft balance on take offs and foot positioning in the air. if you have tricks down on trampoline, but are still to scared to take them to snow; tramp skis are great progression step.

foam pit -> tramp -> tramp skis -> air bag/water ramp -> snow

i personally dont always use them as they are exhausting. my grabs have improved a lot just cause of the repetiton of tramp skis.
