Re: Bellows won't flex at all
Should also mention that I'm not a very confident tele skier and still sometimes bail out of turns with a parallel turn. I ski almost exclusively on piste in the East. Sometimes, I go out to visit my daughter in Montana and ski Big Sky. But most of my skiing is in Ice Hampshire. Next time you are i...
