What’s your idea of a dedicated BC setup @Inspiredcapers ?
Just curious, means different things to different people

I watched the Tele Tay? Video. When you really looked at his skiing, it’s classic “A” Tele. Sure he likes to skid his rear foot some, and pop little airs off the terrain. That just having fun, and yes style, but nuts and bolts just a solid, traditional Telemark skier.

I’m a fisherman! Here’s my 2024 quiver IMG_6094.jpeg Piste ski, Summitcone Pariah 97, 177 cm, even though it is mounted Voile Transit and my boot is F-1 Race It ripped on-piste, handled Vermont “firm” just fine. I’m not saying I didn’t feel very refrozen Corduroy underfoot. I will say I wasn’t skiin...

I can tell you I was definitely edging the trailing ski at speed, and that the Vermont blacks are pretty steep. What I was really concentrating on, was driving the knee of the trailing ski into the ...

On my trailing foot my toes are curled in as my pinky toe is driving the edge of the ski into the snow! Only said slightly in jest, as my toes are edging. Riding lifts, skiing the groomed in firm conditions a couple weeks ago in Vermont, I burned up my thighs and my calves skiing too to bottom and r...

Glad to hear you got them back. I hope this weird weather works well for you in the sugar house!

I use the 45 mm mohair X-Skins on my 196 cm Falketind

If you like a softer ski better with AT bindings, I definitely believe you need to get on a softer ski for Telemark. I can’t ski Telemark on my now ancient mid fat alpine skis, and I ripped some really challenging terrain on them with fixed heels. Telemark skiing is more two footed, your ski needs t...
