can you bounce just as high on a tramp with skis on as you could without them. I was thinking of buying a tramp (bigger better or medium?) I was thinking it might be harder to bounce higher cuz of the whole weight distrubtion thing... It seems like more focused pressure like that of your feet would push farther into the trampoline thus having more rebound power?? Any input?

i dont think many people use normal skis on a tramp for that reason, a lot of people just wrap cardboard in ducttape so when you jump they bend, and your weight is more concentrated.

theres a video of a kid using normal skis doing a lincoln loop. Its pretty cool. I would think poles would be a bad idea. If you landed on it it would probably pierce the tramp.

maybe my trampoline sucks but it's hard for me to get enough air to even think about doing anything inverted when I have my skis on. I can do 3's with grabs or retardedly fast 720's but that's about all I can do with the air I get. It's also really weird because if you jump anywhere but the exact center your tips (or tails) end up closed to the edge of the trampoline where it's tighter and you get thrown off balance.

yeah what they said. as for poles, just find an old pair, snap them off about 3/4 of the way up and wrap the end in a ridiculous amount of ductape!
