Still.... I think a passive truss shot employing this method is legal.
Another thing to keep in mind would be that you would have to either start in the goalie zone or start in the white zone and not be able to score a ball in auto. Also if the set up would be in the goalie zone another thing to keep in mind would be the angle at which the trampoline is in relation to the human player. If the trampoline was parallel to the alliance wall, you're going to lose distance in how far you can get the ball down the field.
