Junked my downhill stuff back in the early 70's.....Didn't like the repetitions and limits of Alpine areas....And the cost!!!! had access to some Asnes woodies and since speed was a thrill just had to have them as long as they came....(220's)....Never saw or heard of Telemark till @ 1980....Teleking...

Poles....Don;t use the wrist strap and then use the poles at any length you want....Way back had to many close calls with the basket getting caught.....Alpine skis will almost always be better at Alpine areas....But if you want to push cc skis to a different level they will give you a wild ride at a...

Think your right S....However heading to Nordic or wanting a Nordic ski leaves the question....What is Nordic?....My intention is to give him the idea that in between skis and Alpine skis are not Nordic in reality....So when in the Nordic realm....99's are the most bought skis ever produced.....That...

Again if your looking for Nordic equipment get the longest and skinniest you can control....Double camber is a must making a serious wax pocket....That doesn't work get skins and make the skis whisper on the wicked fast gliders for a superb feeling on the down.....TM

Liked those Rebounds...88-60-78....Turned really well in most conditions....However they couldn't take serious action...KTB broke all of them....I broke at least 3 sets and the boys broke many more...If they had been a bit tougher they could have been the between Alpine and Nordic ski for us...Their...

Really like my e99's and 109's.....Broke most of the Rebounds also.....have some decades old Asnes (15 sets) up in the shed...Woodies.....and a bona or two....Really like waxable skis because they usually are faster ....have no appreciation for wide short skis and love double camber.....Seems like t...

Thanks for reading!....Hoped to get to Stowe but looks like that won't happen....Can't see any snow over there....from here.....So now need to put the skis somewhere....Heh....Figure i skied on 9 different skis this year with the 109's getting the most use....Tractor....shovel....large granite stone...

99's or 109's have the goods.....They really cruise well...Rocker hurts a bit on the up so you have to adjust your hill climbing....Both wax up well and that helps....Been using the 109's for a couple of years and they turn really well but in a Nordic sense....Both are fast which is good as speed he...

Teleking got a shot of logging road action yesterday Looked good and the snow looked as if it was almost fast!.....We got one club and some golfing shoes for the best golfer in the group.....Telekid!....TM

Silly!.....Bout half an inch and if I weren't going to NH to get some Golf clubs for Telekid.....I would....cause it's the first of May and a may ski is a must!...TM
