Do squats until your legs are strong enough.

Or just eat a bunch of pizza and gain weight.

For reals, they'll break in slowly, I wouldn't try to rush it, seems like a recipe for disaster.

Max Hill used to tell me he'd get skis, and immediately put them between two blocks of wood and just jump up on down on them repeatedly to break them in.

I mean if someone wants to break in their park skis fucking go for it. If you're going to slide rails and shit you're going to completely destroy them anyway.

Could this really be that much a bad idea ? Like if the blocks of wood are only a few cm high ? Because not everyone is able to have enough days on snow to fully break their skis in, and don't want to waste the few days they have breaking them down either.

If you are very careful it's not a horrible idea but there are a lot of stories about ski shop owners that had customers completely snap their brand new skis in the parking lot of the store doing the same thing. Also realize that if you break them in more than you wanted you cannot reverse that and you will be stuck with noodles for the rest of season/following seasons.
