Out door carpet is usually what works good and also construction fence.

Check out https://www.newschoolers.com/cultnews/453/Build-A-Jib-101 for much more ideas.

id say lattice on the slopes and turf on the flats and take off. Im not sure if anyone has tried this yet but i might, i was thinking that since park crews use spray silicon to lube up their boxes and rails i thought maybe if you sprayed some on the lattice it would make it more slippery and quicker not sure if this would make a difference but its worth a try.
