Default Looking for help with my skis

hello all
this is the first post here on skiing forum. I hope that the people here can help me out!!!! I use to ski a lot when i was young then i try-ed snowboarding and i did not care for it. so instead of doing ithere i needed to find something to do in the winter. so i found and old bike and some old ski's and made me a snow bike.



just incase the pic dose not work and you want to see what i'm talking about here is the url
none Photo at none in Haileybury, Ontario, Canada - Pinkbike.com
and heres a nothere shot of the bike/snowboard
none Photo at none in Haileybury, Ontario, Canada - Pinkbike.com


as you all can see i need some help. after i cut the ski's/snowboard the backs of them are flat and that just dose not work well when going back wards. I am a avid Biker and am capable of doing many tricks. Most of which are rotation type tricks were i need to land back wards. this is just not possible with the ski's the way they are. I don't have much money so i have been trying to find a way to bend the back of the ski's/snowboard up. so that i don't keep digging into the ground.

I have had no luck yet!!! any one out there have any ideas?

Nice pics.
I posted a reply to your question on how to bend a ski, as this was a dupe thread.

Thanks,
