Tramp skis?

siding shoes and duct tape cut the siding to ur desired length and start to duct tape the shoes on(make sure the shoe has enough room) then tape the whole thing (for the skis to last loger use 2 pieces of plastic siding for them to be stronger)
 
use cardboard and metal. get some thin flexy but still metal and put it inside the cardboard and use flexible glue to hold it all together. depending on whether the nhl avs game is televised in my area i may make some today and ill post some pics of the whole process
 
snow blades work the best but if u dont ahve them i suggest just using weight on ur feet to get the same feeling
 
cut out 4 pieces of cardboard as long as u want them and as wide as u want them, then u take 2 of those pieces and duck tape them togeather but before u do that take a coat hanger and trech it all the way out and set it between the 2 pieces. do the same with the other 2 pieces of cardboard.then take shoes and ducktape them on. then your golden
 
yea, im east coast so i only got to watch the stupid flyers and sabres, even though forsberg is sick, then they switched to the avs later on. i kinda like the coat hanger idea too but i feel like they would just bend and have no strength or rigidity to them like a peice of metal would. im making some tommo ill get pics and a tramp skiing edit up soon
 
tramp skis suck. you cant do anything, with blades its not that bad but skis the coolest thing you can do is a 3 or like a licon...fun to try, but not that cool quick
 
use regular skis and cut out cardboard for it and place the carboard under ur skis and tape the cardboard to ur skis so that they dont tear
 
If you use any kind of metal in the ski be sure it is springy. If it bends and stays (like a clothes hanger) then you will be jumping around on skis with the meanest reverse camber you have ever seen.
 
yea, remember when we made those tramp ski's for the boy. we got 2 brass rods about three feet long and we put cardboard over them then we put like 3 pounds of ductape on them. they were awesome until the metal bent and wouldnt come back. we should make somemore and actually put some effort into them.
 
i think it works best to train with just socks or bare feet. yes you dont have the weight of your skis to get used to, but also you dont have as much air as you would get on snow. so with the weight of the skis, the only thing your learning to do is to spin and flip really fast for tiny jumps.
 
well the main point is to be able to practice different grabs with spins flips and such. yea having them on will slow down ur tricks but to the same level of how much more air you get on snow. so basically you spin just as hard with bare feet with little air as you do with skis on and big air.
 
i actually made some tramp skis last summer out of cardboard. it kinda worked but you had to get enough air so you didn't come down wrong on the cardboard when it flopped. it was alright until my bro tried them and bent them in half. oh well guess skis were meant for snow
