if you mean to secure it to the timber of your ramp, screws with a decent size washer will do fine (just keep them wide and out of the way of your skis).
Snow should stick to turf ok, the longer the turf is the better. my ramp has inch long turf, which is harder to get for free, but i lucked out.

glue wont do shit, just screw it from the top and if your using several pieces, just overlap them and put the next set of screws below the overlap.

If you dont use washers, you might find the turf base just gets torn by the screws
