it might, but i just made some intensely ill tramp skis with some stuff called eucaboard thats really thin, really light, and really flexible

an easy way to do it is by using cardboard and reinforcing it with thin strips of wood and duck tape

or you could use corrugated plastic and reinforce it with wood

the cardboard way is probably the easiest to make, but it would take the longest, the other two ways are really good if you can find the right materials

one question, if you fall off the tramp, and you have skis attached, won't you die and ruin next years season?

If they're stiff it wont work at all. Distributing weight doesn't work out too well on a regular round tramp.

make sure they plastic is well rounded if sharp
It will dammage the Tamp, You can grind or file the sides down, if any metal edges on skis take them off, Your grinding wheel or file will also be scrap after because the plastic will have melted & stuck to the disc or teeth. which ever
I do tramp with old short skis

real skis work u just cant go too high cause they absorb the bounce
its also real slippery so sometimes ur skis just shoot out from under you
i tried it this one time and it wasnt as good as i thought it was gonna be

ive tried it and its not the fun....the skis do tend to slip out under your feet a little bit.

^ hes right. don't worry about tramp skis or anything. if you wanna be rad, jump on the tramp with ankle weights.

i tried it with 140cm skis. the skis end up abospbing the bouce, and we ended up delaming the ski because it flexed like mad when we tried to bounce huge.

you could always try bouncing with your boots on.

oh and if you use real skis with edges make sure you cover them so you don;t tear your tramp.
