Actually I have seen these ski jumps for olympic training for freestyle skiing where they have this huge hit that launches you into a swimming pool. You would obviously need to go down a hill for this to work out, but it looked like they just used a kind of hard plastic tiling, they were like these 6 x 6 plastic pieces that just fit together. Who knows where you could score those but I have also seen a homemade trainer made in a kids backyard. He just used a kind of hard plastic sheeting, probably comes in like 4 x 8 sheets. Either way you are really going to have to wet the surface down to be able to slide on it. It would be pretty rad having a path of that stuff set up going up to a rail that dropped into a pond or a pool. Don't forget the life vest though, ha.

I remember an episode of "Viva La Bam" where Bam put down a fake ice rink out of these plastic sheets which were very slippery. That might work, look around for something like that.
