Winter back yard drop in

I have a small backyard that's all flat so I need to make a drop in for a rail. Last year I made the drop in out of snow and it was probably about 5 1/2 to 6 feet tall and it was pretty slow. I want to spend more time on the rail this winter so I want to make a simple lightweight and cheap drop in. Anyone have any idea? Something collapsable or foldable would be cool. I think lightweight, hopefully easily movable and efficient is the best. If you know how to build it or can just find any drop in you have ever seen that looks pretty good that's good. I'm looking for seriously every type of possible drop in
 
Think of a step ladder. Something that folds in half, is wide enough to ski down, and is steep enough for the speed you need but not too steep that a transition wont be smooth
 
before bungees and winches were popular that was the way to do it. The dropins are usually much larger and way more stable though, vs a normal stepladder
 
I've definately clipped in in about just as bad and yes it is a test of balance. It especially sucks when your trying to drop in switch, so you try to clip in facing the other way. I have fallen from the top of a bunch of narrow, wobbly drop ins, it sucks ball so much
 
I know someone who made a ladder like ramp and it was a great idea but hard to execute well. It always seemed too instable and sketchy to get a Ron of speed
 
yeah I've been trying to figure out how they made that I remember first seeing that in some Salomon skis video. If anyone know how to build it?
