Re: Of boots and such...
I don't find that downhill skiing on powerful Telemark equipment helps my downhill skills- when downhill skiing on BC-XC equipment. In fact, the more I practice on powerful Telemark- the more I find my old habits creeping back into my body- and spreading everywhere into my BC-XC skiing- then I star...

Re: A theory...
IMO, skis are skis, regardless of how they are turned. THere's plenty of them you can mount up tele.

Re: Of boots and such...
For me, these things seemed to have come full circle. Start on light gear and struggle, be it MTB or tele, crave more action and start lusting after bigger and higher-performance (DH MTB or heavy tele) gear, gain experience/confidence at high-speed/high consequence. Once experience and confidence ar...

Re: Studies in Entropy
Replace "level" with "axe" and I'd agree with that statement.

I ski solo a lot and also a lot with SO and enjoy it immensely, but honestly, I prefer the company of a ski buddy when skiing.

Re: Studies in Entropy
HA! Well, it says more about how information and assumptions made on the internets is not always what it seems... That's my buddy's workbench. Uninterestingly, mine's a pigsty too.

' IMO, you've got a good plan. Use the old skis, mount new NNN BC bindings, get boots. I'd be curious to hear feedback about th...
