Not unless you are a ski racer yourself, and were lucky enough to get top of the line equipment. World Cup skiers get the best race skis that their factory makes. They have many different pairs of the same type (downhill skis, for example) that they will test to see which are the fastest. Race skis are highly specialized and differ greatly from demo skis or skis that the public usually buys. You can see this reflected in the price. Race skis typically run $800-$1000 for the skis, not including bindings.
K2 Skis is actually a line of K2 Sports, a privately owned company founded in 1961 by the brothers "Bill Kirschner" and "Don Kirschner". They firstly used fiberglass technologies for their skis and got a big success out of that.
Yes you can make skis, but it would be hard. You need all sorts of materials, machinery and expertise to make quality skis. All the big ski companies have scientists and designers to develop skis. But if you want i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to make a good old fashion pair of wood skis. The bindings could be tricky though.In fact some ski companies just started with people like you who wanted to make skis. For example the company Line was started by Jason Levinthal in 1995. He made his first skis in his own garage.
A tow line to hold on to, something to tie the tow line on to on the boat and a handle.
You can't get skis.
