no its not because hes training for pipe, that actually has nothing to do with it. Working on technical bed tricks like that bouncing from back, stomach, and seat drops can really help with air awareness. Air awareness is probably the most important thing to work on for skiing, as it helps everything that you do. So try to do a lot of stuff like flips out of back, seat, or front drops, cradles(back drop-180-back drop), and turntables(stomach-spin-stomach) and it should be able to improve your jumping in general weather it be on a tramp or skis.

yeah. the skis absorb all of your bounce. Just try some spinning and flipping (Lincolns, back 1's, back 3's) and try to start and land in the very center of the tramp for all of your tricks.

put weights on your feet ~equal to the weight of your boots and skis. that's the only non-stupid thing to do to make it more like skiing
