Re: Telemark Lessons

My dial up won't let me see the video but if your elongated on skinny skis that's good....Wide and short is more of a downhill balance anyway....Elongated your probably fore aft so that's a real positive....It's THE feel!!!! TM

Re: Year in review: What did you learn?

Montrealer, we call it riding the rail....One long ski, head them down and let gravity do it's thing....Works best in deep powder and soft corn....It also works well in the bush where you don't have a lot of space....Tight trees....whips...In deep powder we just dip the tip and that resistance slows...

Re: Telemark

A sloppy two inches of wet heavy mashed potatoes.....Thought crossed the mind that it might be kinda fast.....Wrong!.....Easy up with red wax and temps @ 35o.....Short down with many turns to bleed speed even at low angle....To slow no go turns....Build up speed and the skis came around.
